Daniel splits neatly into two halves: court stories about surviving lions’ dens and fiery furnaces in the first, and increasingly strange apocalyptic visions in the second. It’s also one of the books scholars argue about the most when it comes to when it was actually written. We made it through all 12 chapters.
You’ll also see 3 episodes marked Dig Deeper below. The show’s format is an unstudied first read, reactions and all, so those episodes are where the hosts go back into a book or chapters they already covered to chase down their own questions and pick up what they missed the first time through. They’re not listener Q&A, just the hosts grading their own homework.
