The Handwriting on the Wall: Secrets from the Prophecies of Daniel Reviews

  In his down-to-earth style Dr. Jeremiah in his novel “the Handwriting on the Wall” explores the Book of Daniel as Daniel and his brother Jews face incredible challenges after capture and taken into exile by Nebuchadnezzar. Holding fast to their unshakeable faith they face death in a furnace of fire, in a den of hungry lions and by refusing to bow down to the image of the Conqueror.
  
  Dr. Jeremiah in his book unravels the mystery of Daniel’s prophecies of future events making them clear and uplifting in this time of uncertainty. Inspirational and timeless in its messages, readers come to the conclusion that they can trust God’s Word rather than the sensationalistic headlines of today’s news.
  
  Dr. Jeremiah’s style is clear and practical, his understanding of biblical prophecy giving confidence and hope for the future based on the profound and unshakeable Word of God. Well-written and insightful this is a must read for all those fearful of what tomorrow will bring and of the road ahead in these tumultuous times. The message is clear: God is in charge.

  I went into this book having just done an inductive bible study of the book of Daniel. I'm not crazy about Dr. David Jeremiah's writing style. Particularly in the first half of the book I felt like he sounded a bit like a grouchy old man going off on tangents about things he didn't like.
  
  He does have some good stuff to say but I definitely don't agree with everything... He frequently presents things that are heavily debated as fact and doesn't even address that there are other views.
  
  Overall I'd say skip it.

  Excellent commentary on the Biblical Book of Daniel. Dr Jeremiah plainly and in laymans terms explains the prophecies contained in Daniel. Daniel is a difficult book of the Bible to understand but Dr. Jeremiah's clear explanations and logical teaching linking Daniel's prophecies to today's current events made the Book of Daniel much clearer for me.

  Encouraging and exciting! Prophesy and observation clearly identify the end times are soon to be upon us. We should all be ready, and seeking to reach & teach those that we can.

  A terrific, down-to-Earth, assessment of the Book of Daniel. Dr. Jeremiah makes short of work speaking Biblical truth to a contemporary audience, particularly to the newly converted. He wastes no time in establishing who Daniel was, and the sort of person Daniel might be if he were a contemporary figure. New converts will find Dr. Jeremiah’s approach welcoming while remaining firmly in Biblical truth.
  
  Chapter by chapter he dissects Daniel’s actions and his prophecy in the face of unimaginable circumstances, all the while holding true to his God. I offer 4 stars, with a polite suggestion toward five, given Dr. Jeremiah’s lean toward pre-millennialism in his approach to eschatology.
  
  Beyond that, he does a great service plain speaking to a contemporary audience and society in great need of a Savior. Dr. Jeremiah’s entire catalogue is a terrific place to start before making the jump into the works of others like Sproul.

  Highly readable, uplifting, challenging excellence!
  
  Not only do I enjoy the easy conversational style of David Jeremiah, I thoroughly appreciate the detailed analysis of each section of t he book that he had compiled.
  He makes the prophecies of Daniel understandable and relevant to us in 2018. Daniel lived in challenging times. We do too! Daniel learned to cope and rise far above his circumstances. The book of Daniel - with help from this book by David Jeremiah - can help us rise above our circumstances as well.

  The book of Daniel
  
  This book provide insights into the prophecies of Daniel in a way that even the Layven could understand I think that it should be a good idea for everyone to read this book

  I found this to be a very helpful book on understanding the book of Daniel. However, I probably don't share Dr. David Jeremiah's certainty about his understanding of end times. I like his conclusions, but I'm not sure I can earnestly say that I'm convinced scripture spells out so much about the rapture and the tribulation. I'm one of those who is willing to admit I just don't know how it all turns out and won't until it happens. At that point, we will all be able to look back and say truthful that's what scripture said would happen. But for now, we see through a glass darkly.

  Excellent book explaining the entire book of Daniel. The first part of the book is history, and the rest is prophecy; prophecies that have already been fulfilled in history, and then prophecies of the end times. An understanding of the book of Daniel, as explained in Dr. Jeremiah's book, helps us to see what is going on in the world today, and is a message of hope for the believer in Jesus, as well as a motivator for believers to share the gospel with others, before it's too late.

  A fascinating read! An in-depth study of end times prophecy as it covers the Prophet Daniel's journal! Highly recommended for students of God's Word who want a "user friendly", Biblically based, comprehensive study. Dr. Jeremiah presents well with excellent writing and sound research! Great book!

  Informative easy read
  
  This was a great book to explain the book of Daniel. Dr. Jeremiah really broke down the harder parts. While I still have many questions, I believe that is what Jesus wants from us. To continue to study and learn. To have our eyes opened while the end draws near. Look up people, our redemption is coming...SOON!

  Prophesy being fulfilled
  
  Good exposition on the Book of Daniel and its relationship to the Book of Revelation. There is power in the truth of the historical facts of prophecy fulfilled and its relationship to our culture today even though the book is dated.

  This is a fantastic book for anyone interested in prophecy and the end times. I always thought Revelation was the book to read but I was wrong. Dr. Jeremiah’s easy writing style opened my eyes to this (to me) obscure book on prophecy. I will definitely be reading it again.

  David Jeremiah examines more than just the prophesies found in Daniel; he also explores each chapter in Daniel, pointing out the items of interest as if we are taking a tour through the book. As usual, Jeremiah brings his easily-maneuverable writing style.
