The Book of Daniel was put into the Septuagint for a reason, because
the people
of that time knew that it wasn't a current work, but one of history
that was
read for inspiration even during the time of the Maccabees.
Well, all avaliable evidence indicates it was WRITTEN around the time of
the
maccabees, probably slightly before. There seem to be many references to
the
persecutions of Antiochus Epiphanes in >it.
Well Tommy, if it was written before that time
eh? Judas Maccabite started the revolt in 165 BC, Antiochus epiphanes
reigned 175-63. Hence his persecutions predate the maccabites, don't they?
Or was he only into persecuting Jews for the last two years of his reign? In
which case I modify my statement to "written after the last years of the
reign of Antiochus Epiphanes".
, and it refrences Antiochus
Epiphanes, then it is a prophectic book.
See above...
