Survey of Ezekiel and Daniel

Seventeen books of the Bible comprise about one-fourth of the Scriptures and make up the last division in the Old Testament—the Prophets. The office of prophet was instituted during the days of Samuel, and those who were prophets stood along with the priests as God’s special representatives. The men who wrote these books were called or appointed to “speak for” God Himself. God communicated His messages to them through a variety of means, including dreams, visions, angels, nature, miracles, and an audible voice. Unfortunately, the messages they shared from God were often rejected and their lives endangered. The prophetic books have four major themes and purposes:

1. To expose the sinful practices of the people
2. To call the people back to the moral, civil, and ceremonial law of God
3. To warn the people of coming judgment
4. To anticipate the coming of Messiah

This course does a fly over these prophetic books: Ezekiel and Daniel. The student will gain a deep understanding of the major themes, places, characters, and divine messages of these books. The function and purpose of the Old Testament is critical in building a complete biblical understanding. This survey class is part of our series designed to take students through the entire Old Testament.
