Re: Nabonidus
Gunnar,
I am heavily into the topic of the origins of the Daniel stories. I
am trying to write a dissertation on the background of Daniel--its
mileu--and the origin and redaction of the tales figures into this.
I would be happy to keep in touch and have an ongoing discussion!
What have you read so far on the topic?
