Daniel is two books joined at the hip: six chapters of narrative that almost preach themselves, and six of apocalyptic vision that most preachers quietly skip.

Rodney D. Stortz takes the whole of it, and the subtitle names the thread that holds the two halves together: the triumph of God's kingdom over every empire that has ever thought itself permanent. Expositional and accessible, in the Preaching the Word series, and particularly helpful on the visions of chapters seven to twelve.
