Excerpt from The Two Later Visions of Daniel: Historically Explained
Since my former work, a volume' has appeared, by a noble and learned author, whom I have the privilege to know, on the Times of the prophet Daniel. With a very deep personal regard for that noble author, whose studies are a bright contrast to the follies which occupy too many of our peers, I am compelled to differ entirely from his views. I had prepared a chapter on the sub jcet for the present work but as it seemed rather foreign to the scope of the volume, I have suppressed it at present. But I feel it right to observe that I have examined closely the two difficulties, which alone give a seeming strength to his Grace's theory, - the succession of names in the Persian history, and the two covenants under Zerubbabel and N ehemiah,-and feel confident that I can meet them both with a full and complete answer'. It seems to me surprising that the paradox of two Scripture Nebuchadnezzars, and a Scripture Cyrus, totally unknown to profane history, in the reign of Longimanus, contemporary with Cimon and Pericles, can ever be received by any mind, accustomed to pay the least regard to the laws of evidence. Every fresh inquiry has only increased my confidence in the usual chronology, derived from the Canon of Ptolemy, and its truth, I believe, may be almost entirely established even by Scripture evidence alone.
