ABSTRACT THE INFLUENCE AND USE OF DANIEL IN THE SYNOPTIC GOSPELS by Reimar Vetne Adviser: Jon Paulien ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE INFLUENCE AND USE OF DANIEL IN THE SYNOPTIC GOSPELS Name of researcher: Reimar Vetne Name and degree of faculty adviser: Jon Paulien, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2011 Scholars have always been aware of influence from the book of Daniel in the Synoptic Gospels. Various allusions to Daniel have been discussed in numerous articles, monographs and commentaries. Now we have for the first time a comprehensive look at all the possible allusions to Daniel in one study. All the cases are discussed and given an assessment of either 'no allusion', 'uncertain allusion', 'possible allusion', 'probable allusion', or 'certain allusion'. After reviewing the most common terminology and methodology used in scholarship in the area of literary influence (ch. 1), the bulk of the cases are discussed one by one in the following chapter (ch. 2), except those dealing specifically with the 'Son of Man' (ch. 3), the Olivet Discourse (ch. 4), and the 'Kingdom of God' (ch. 5). A concluding chapter summarizes the findings and shows some specific themes where the book of Daniel has influenced the Synoptics. The result of this study is that Daniel has shaped the language and phraseology of many sayings in the Gospels to a larger degree than many of us have thought, and that a fresh understanding of the Synoptic Jesus' strategy for kingdom-building appears.

    Daniel Eight and Nine! 1

    Family Bible Studies - 9 page 1 What the Bible says about – DanielDaniel EightEight andand NineNine SCRIPTURE READING: DANIEL 8 AND 9 The Bible speaks of a judgment in which men shall be called to give an account to God for their deeds. Christ warned His hearers that for “ev- ery idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment” (Matthew 12:36). Paul preached the judgment before Felix (Acts 24:25), and Daniel in vision saw the judgment in ses- sion (Daniel 7:9-10). A subject of so great importance, which involves every living being, deserves the closest study. The prophecy of Daniel that is presented in this lesson points to the exact time for the begin- ning of the judgment. Let us now open our Bibles to Daniel, chapter eight, and observe that the prophet is given a clear-cut view of the pe- riod in history when the judgment convenes in heaven. THE VISION OF DANIEL 8 We are now back with Daniel in the palace of an ancient empire where he received a dramatic vision from God. A few questions will help us get our bearings. Remember, please, these questions will not help you much unless you have read Daniel eight and nine! 1. Who is represented by the ram and its two horns? Daniel 8:20—“The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.” Little explanation is needed. The Bible is perfectly plain. One of the ram’s horns was higher than the other, indicating that one of the pow- ers of this dual monarchy, Medo-Persia, was to be stronger than the other.

    Alan R. Millard, "Daniel 1

    A.R. Millard, “Daniel 1-6 and History,” Evangelical Quarterly 49.2 (April-June 1977): 67-73. Daniel 1-6 and History A. R. Millard [p.67] Current discussions on Daniel in commentaries and Old Testament introductions commonly consider the stories of Daniel and his Three Friends to be traditional tales originating “in the eastern Jewish Diaspora during the Hellenistic period”.1 The assumed Maccabaean author of Daniel then utilized them to encourage the faithful in a time of persecution. A minority opinion, most ably forwarded by H. H. Rowley, holds that the author of Daniel himself “made use of traditions older than his day, but moulded them to serve his purpose”.2 Clearly both views adopt a second century B.C. dating for the book, but for chapters 1 to 6 the basic reasons are historical and linguistic, whereas for the later chapters the question of detailed predictive prophecy is central. It is to historical aspects of the stories that this essay is directed. Before turning to them, however, attention may be drawn to the linguistic argument based upon the Aramaic of Daniel in the light of K. A. Kitchen’s conclusion: “there is nothing to decide the date of composition of the Aramaic of Daniel on the grounds of Aramaic anywhere between the late sixth and the second century B.C…. It is equally obscurantist to exclude dogmatically a sixth-fifth (or fourth) century date on the one hand, or to hold such a date as mechanically proven on the other, as far as the Aramaic is concerned.”3 Although H.

    Christian Angelology Angelology Introduction Why study Angels? They teach us about God As part of God’s creation, to study them is to study why God created the way he did. In looking at angels we can see God’s designs for his creation, which tells us something about God himself. They teach us about ourselves We share many similar qualities to the angels. We also have several differences due to them being spiritual beings. In looking at these similarities and differences we can learn more about the ways God created humanity. In looking at angels we can avoid “angelic fallacies” which attempt to turn men into angels. They are fascinating! Humans tend to be drawn to the supernatural. Spiritual beings such as angels hit something inside of us that desires to “return to Eden” in the sense of wanting to reconnect ourselves to the spiritual world. They are different, and different is interesting to us. Fr. J.

For more information, please contact [email protected] Abstract: (Daniel, apocalypticism, William Miller) This thesis is a comparison of how three different apocalyptic religious groups interpret the Book of Daniel as referring to their particular group and circumstances despite the vast differences from the book’s original context. First, the authorship of the book of Daniel itself is analyzed to establish the original intent of the book and what it meant to its target audience in the second century BCE. This first chapter is also used as a point of comparison to the other groups. Secondly, the influence of Daniel on the authorship of the book of Revelation and early Christianity is examined. In the third chapter, the use of Daniel amongst the Millerites, a nineteenth century American apocalyptic religious movement is analyzed. To conclude, the use of Daniel amongst the three groups is compared allowing for conclusions of how these particular groups managed to understand the book of Daniel as referring to their own particular group and circumstances with some attention paid to modern trends in interpretation as well.

Path Viable the Memory Quest for The of Jesus: A field of study in which various theories of mem- ory (e.g. social/collective memory and individual The Quest for the Memory of Jesus: memory) and ancient media studies (e.g. study A Viable Path or a Dead End? of oral tradition and history) are applied to historical Jesus research. The main purpose of the dissertation is to study whether the memory approach constitutes a coherent methodological school of thought. The dissertation discusses in what ways the memory approach distinguishes itself from earlier research and whether one can speak of a new beginning in historical Jesus research. A central focus of the study is the research-historical discussion on the nature and processes of the transmission of the Jesus tradi- tions in early Christianity, which is a significant research problem for both earlier historical Jesus research and the memory approach. | 2017 9 789517 658812 Åbo Akademi University Press | ISBN 978-951-765-881-2 Tuomas Havukainen (born 1988) Master of Theology (MTh) 2012, University of Wales Cover Photo: by Patrik Šlechta, September 11, 2014, from Pixabay.com.
