The Book of Daniel is so complex and mysterious, Jews rarely study it, but Rabbi Wein braves the challenge and clarifies its difficult issues. The Book is divided into two sections: one a narrative history of the first Babylonian exile, and the other an account of Daniel's prophetic visions. Whether his visions refer to his own times or predict the coming of the Messiah is a matter of fervent debate amongst the great Torah commentators, and Rabbi Wein summarizes their positions, shedding light on this mystical book of Tanach.
