   Daniel's prophetic timetable is quoted at length and applied to calculate the duration of the Jewish War.

   And these too must be rendered to the chronography — the days, I mean, at which Daniel hints, from the desolation of Jerusalem .

   The biblical prophecy is invoked as an apt and authoritative characterization of the Roman Empire's historical role.

   Seen in this light, the Roman Empire is accurately described in the Prophecy of Daniel.

   Named explicitly as prophetic authority for the signs discussed.

   For after He had declared, "And then Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the nations, until the times of the nations be fulfilled" — those, namely, to be enrolled by God and gathered with the remnants of Israel — thence already, unto the world and unto the age, He proclaims, according to Joel and Daniel and the whole council of the prophets, signs to come in the sun and in the moon and in the stars …

   Episodes narrated in the Book of Daniel (the fiery furnace, thrice-daily prayer) are directly invoked as scriptural precedent.

   Even though these things stand simply, without any precept of observance, yet it would be good to establish some presumption, which may both bind us to the admonition of prayer, and, as it were by a law, wrest us from our business at times to such a duty — so that, as we read was observed by Daniel too, surely out of the discipline of Israel, we may pray not less than three times at least in the d …
