Daniel: Hope Amid a Hostile World
A Vision for the Time of the End
- A Historical Prophecy
- What It Means for Israel
- What It Means for Us
Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read Daniel 8:1-27. How can God provide such a detail prophecy of future events? What does this chapter teach us about God?
- How does this prophecy prepare Daniel and Israel for what lies ahead?
- Transgression is mentioned twice in the chapter (v. 12 & 23). Whose transgression is this? Why? What is the connection between transgression and judgment (see Deut. 28:45-50)?
- What does this prophecy teach us about the nature of evil and the aims of the Evil One?
- In what ways does the evil prophesied in Daniel 8 foreshadow the evil of the cross? What encouragement does this give us?
Memory Verse of the Week:
1 Peter 5:8-9 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. (ESV)
