From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Daniel, Book of       is ranked by the Jews in that division of their Bible called the       Hagiographa (Heb. Khethubim). (See {BIBLE}.) It consists       of two distinct parts. The first part, consisting of the first       six chapters, is chiefly historical; and the second part,       consisting of the remaining six chapters, is chiefly       prophetical.                The historical part of the book treats of the period of the       Captivity. Daniel is "the historian of the Captivity, the writer       who alone furnishes any series of events for that dark and       dismal period during which the harp of Israel hung on the trees       that grew by the Euphrates. His narrative may be said in general       to intervene between Kings and Chronicles on the one hand and       Ezra on the other, or (more strictly) to fill out the sketch       which the author of the Chronicles gives in a single verse in       his last chapter: 'And them that had escaped from the sword       carried he [i.e., Nebuchadnezzar] away to Babylon; where they       were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom       of Persia'" (2 Chr. 36:20).                The prophetical part consists of three visions and one       lengthened prophetical communication.                The genuineness of this book has been much disputed, but the       arguments in its favour fully establish its claims. (1.) We have       the testimony of Christ (Matt. 24:15; 25:31; 26:64) and his       apostles (1 Cor. 6:2; 2 Thess. 2:3) for its authority; and (2)       the important testimony of Ezekiel (14:14, 20; 28:3). (3.) The       character and records of the book are also entirely in harmony       with the times and circumstances in which the author lived. (4.)       The linguistic character of the book is, moreover, just such as       might be expected. Certain portions (Dan. 2:4; 7) are written in       the Chaldee language; and the portions written in Hebrew are in       a style and form having a close affinity with the later books of       the Old Testament, especially with that of Ezra. The writer is       familiar both with the Hebrew and the Chaldee, passing from the       one to the other just as his subject required. This is in strict       accordance with the position of the author and of the people for       whom his book was written. That Daniel is the writer of this       book is also testified to in the book itself (7:1, 28; 8:2; 9:2;       10:1, 2; 12:4, 5). (See {BELSHAZZAR}.)
