Daniel in the Critics' Den: A Defense of the Historicity of the Book of Daniel

First published in 1909, Daniel in the Critics' Den was Sir Robert Anderson's response to skeptics who believed the Book of Daniel to be a forgery. These "higher" critics pointed to alleged errors and anachronisms that cast doubt upon its authenticity. In this carefully argued polemic, Anderson refutes higher criticism and its adherents by articulating their objections one by one and thoroughly discrediting them. Meticulously documented and including no fewer than seven comprehensive appendices, this often-cited classic of Biblical scholarship will engage the modern pastor, religious historian, and lay person alike. While at Scotland Yard, Irish police official and religious scholar SIR ROBERT ANDERSON (1841-1918) helped investigate the Jack the Ripper murders, but he is best remembered for his works of Bible study, including The Coming Prince, Daniel in the Critics' Den, and The Silence of God.
