IS THE OLD TESTAMENT HISTORICAL OR NOT?

Some people insist that the Bible is an accurate historical account.  Others claim it is only Mythology.  Fr. Bill discusses how it is both, why it is both and to what purpose it serves as a “historical” for the ancient Kingdom of Israel, as well as to people of faith today.

HOW DOES THE BOOK OF DANIEL “PREDICT” HISTORY?

“How Does the Book of Daniel ‘Predict’ History?”
Apocalypse, part 9

Daniel’s Visions, received during the Babylonian Exile, offer glimpses into the coming history of the Jewish People.

Fr. Bill discusses how the Book of Daniel conveys the foresight of the Prophet Daniel into his people impending destiny in the face of the history of the region at that time.
