Publisher's Description
A tragic world ravaged by conflict. A world in which powerful political states act ruthlessly, with millions upon millions of lives devastated. Across the globe, from continent to continent, in state after state, political power is wielded in ways that are inhumane and dehumanizing. Vast numbers of people are the victims of violent religious persecution. For many, living a godly life brings with it the prospect of considerable suffering and hardship. That's the reality painted in the book of Daniel. The Future for the Wise in a Conflict-Ravaged World provides us with the perspectives we need to face the future as we live in such a world and remain true to the God who rules over it.

“In a world plagued by uncertainty, the book of Daniel shines with relevance. But its complexity often leaves us perplexed. Enter Michael Wilson’s The Future for God’s People in a Conflict-Ravaged World. Wilson dissects scholarly views, builds a clear case, and delivers concise, practical wisdom. A must-have for scholars, preachers, and Christians seeking clarity amidst chaos.”
“Distinctively evangelical books on Daniel are hard to find, which is why I commend Michael Wilson’s second volume. The commentary on Daniel 7–12 argues for an early date for the book as a whole and provides a detailed guide to scholarly literature on the book. The major interpretive issues are fairly and sympathetically evaluated. Wilson identifies the message of the book as the need for God’s people to endure and remain faithful despite unjust suffering. This makes it a timely book for today.”
