About this audiobook

In his #1 New York Times bestseller Agents of the Apocalypse, noted prophecy expert Dr. David Jeremiah explored the book of Revelation through the lens of its major players. Now, in the much-anticipated follow-up, Agents of Babylon, Dr. Jeremiah examines prophecy through the eyes of the characters in the book of Daniel, explains what the prophecies mean, and helps us understand how these prophetic visions and dreams apply to our lives today. Written in the same highly engaging half dramatization, half Bible teaching format as Agents of the Apocalypse, Agents of Babylon is not only an in-depth exploration of the characters and prophecies contained in the book of Daniel but also a dramatic retelling of Scripture that is sure to bring ancient prophecy to light like never before.

    Jeremiah provided a lively interpretation of the book of Daniel. It didn’t go deep in the 70 weeks; you’ll need to get other books like from Chuck Missler to get such details.

    Kind of dry, like a Sunday School class for twelve year olds, and didn't add much to my knowledge of end times that I didn't already know.

    Wow, this book is incredible! Better than Agents of the Apocalypse.

    When I was looking for a study of biblical prophecy a number of years ago, I ended up settling for listening to sermons because I couldn't find a book that delivered. I wanted something that explained which prophecies had been fulfilled including when and how and which were yet to be fulfilled. I also wanted a little about the differing views on the subject and to know which were the prevailing views and why. I wanted to know how prophecy proved the Bible and what to expect in the future (as far as is possible.) I did find what I was looking for in audio messages by John MacArthur but some of it was too academic and because it was audio I didn't absorb as much as I would have liked. This book was what I had been looking for....

    Agents of Babylon uses the Biblical narrative in Daniel to create fictional stories around the events. The author then explains the Scripture, the different views, his own view and the reasons for it and the application for today. Rather than confusing the Biblical narrative, the fictional accounts enhance them and bring the text to life, this is because it is so closely based on Scripture and the author hasn't insisted on inserting personal views into the writing.

    Having read this book and the prequel (sequel?) I finally feel like I understand the biblical history and the prophecies that have yet to be fulfilled. I personally have never been one to doubt the authenticity of the Bible but for those who struggle with doubt, read this book! The author states that some atheists even dispute when the book of Daniel was written due to the accuracy of the fulfillments to date. This book should give us confidence that God will fulfill His outstanding prophecies as specifically as He has done in the past.

    I usually research authors if I am beginning to seek out their books. I will add that I have read some concerns about the methods the author has used to increase sales of his books. I do not know whether the claims are true. I don't think they have much bearing on whether or not I will recommend this book as they have nothing to do with the content. The book is clean--no bad language, or sexual content and limited violence.

    I highly recommend this book for those wanting to understand biblical prophecy in layman's language and for those who want to be encouraged to trust the authenticity of the Bible.

    Dr. Jeremiah takes an almost chapter-by-chapter approach to the Book of Daniel, exploring history and prophecy, and applying it to the life of a Christian in today's (particularly western/U.S.) society.While I was reading this book, I was also working through Beth Moore's Bible study on the Book of Daniel, and I wanted to read this as a sort of overview, reminder, and way of perhaps looking at the Book of Daniel a little differently. It's not as in-depth as I thought it might be, but it was an excellent overview and most of his interpretations matched up to the study I was completely concurrently. Each chapter is introduced with a fictitious account based on the Biblical account: this method is not one that I particularly like, but it may work for some others. Then, Dr. Jeremiah follows with an explication of the Biblical account, using quotes from Daniel and commentaries to support his comments, and a final section delves into personal application. There were a handful of insights that were not covered in my other study, but by and large I would approach it as an introduction to this book of prophecy and follow up with further, more challenging reading. I especially liked the Appendix at the end that summarized every statement about God, chapter by chapter.
