Daniel lived an exemplary life of faith during historic political events. He excelled at his job in exile while committing himself to God's kingdom purposes for his day. Because he did, he models how people may live exemplary lives of faith by committing themselves to God's kingdom purposes for their day, even in these troubled political times. In this book, Clark reveals the nuances of Daniel's wisdom while living in exile. He evaluates how Daniel appealed to increasingly higher political and celestial authorities throughout his time in office in two different empires, the Babylonian and Persian. Daniel's righteous living and wisdom in these five appeals reveal why he was considered "highly esteemed" in the kingdom of heaven. In the final chapter, Clark uses intelligence analysis methods to demonstrate the reliability of the authorship of the book of Daniel.
