Introduction
This exposition of the book of Daniel is the closing and crowning work by Rev. Clarence Larkin, a servant of God, whose life was wholly devoted to the study, teaching, and preaching of God’s precious word. During the more than forty years of his quiet, but blessed ministry as a pastor and teacher, he made a very faithful use of his time and opportunity to thoroughly study the whole counsel of God as embodied in the Scriptures, not only for his own heart, but in order to help others as fully as possible to know their Lord and Saviour.
Calling to his aid the best books on the exposition of the Bible by the ablest scholars and teachers of this and other days, and depending upon the Holy Spirit for needed illumination, the author obeyed the conviction that it was the will of God to pass on to the Church of Christ the results of the years of his enrichment in the knowledge of God and of His word. At the sacrifice of time, pleasure, strength, and financial profit, he gave himself to prepare, not only this book on “Daniel,” but also a book on “Revelation,” “Second Coming of Christ,” “Rightly Dividing the Word,” and “Dispensational Truth,” without doubt the best book of Bible charts that is printed.
Suffering in body, yet strong in the power of the Holy Spirit, Rev. Larkin pressed on till this hook of Daniel was completed, then His loving Saviour and Lord said “Come home and rest with Me.”
Through this consecrated servant, the Lord has given to His Church a wealth of wisdom concerning
THE BOOK OF DANIEL
His redemptive counsels, in such form that every believer may be greatly aided in the study to show themselves approved unto God, workmen who need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
The writer of this note thanks God for the great blessing to his own life and ministry through his intimate acquaintance with Rev. Larkin, and with his teaching, and heartily commends this volume now dedicated to the Lord and to all of His bloodbought ones.
Our prayer is that every reader may be greatly blessed, like Daniel, in being given “understanding” of the counsels of God concerning the present and future evil times, and the glories of Christ which are yet to be manifest.
Yours in His Service,
Ww. RUGH,
Founder of the Bible Institute of Pennsylvania
