Message of Daniel
God still rules over the earth, despite the fact that God’s people are in exile and persecuted. The exile will end as Jeremiah predicted, but the period when Israel will be dominated and persecuted by Gentile powers (the “times of the Gentiles”) will be extended. After that time God will turn the kingdoms of this world over to the “Son of Man” who will rule the kingdom of God on earth. Until then, God’s people must be faithful despite persecution and trials.
