The author argues that the book comprises writings by at least three distinct authors, each producing independent pamphlets during the Maccabean period (168-165 BC). These authors, identified as A, B, and C, present Daniel in different historical contextsâ"Babylonian, Persian, and under Darius the Medeâ"and draw upon distinct literary traditions. The analysis uncovers stylistic differences, historical discrepancies, and variations in vocabulary, leading to the conclusion that the Book of Daniel is a composite work, shaped by the urgent need to encourage and strengthen the Jewish people during a time of crisis. This innovative approach deepens our understanding of the book's origins and historical significance, revealing its multifaceted nature as a product of its turbulent era.
