The purpose of this article is to examine the results of historical-critical study of the Book of Daniel from the view of the canon. The historical study of the Book of Daniel reads the book for the community of the 2nd c. B. C., but is likely to regard Daniel 1-6 as artificial and having lost the message about eschatology for the Christian community today. In order to read the Book of Daniel from the view of the canon, we have to connect the subject of eschatology to the contexts of the historical situation in both the 6th century B. C. and the 2nd century B. C., moreover to that of the Christian community today. The unknown writer in the period of the Maccabees did not understand that period as the period of new revelation, but the period which Daniel's prophecy is being fulfilled. To the community in 2nd century B. C, Daniel 1-6 is not the unnecessary literature, but indispensable literature for the authority of the revelation. By showing Daniel-figure obeying to the Torah, the Book of Daniel understands him as having the authority to prophesy for the community in the 2nd c. B. C. Daniel 1-6 focuses on the four kingdoms within historical 70 years, while Daniel 7-12 focuses on four kingdoms within theological 70 weeks. From the view of the canon, the Book of Daniel is composed of two parts: in the first part, Daniel experienced exile, obeyed to the Torah, and got the ability to interpret dreams; in the second part, the qualified Daniel made a prophecy for the community to endure theological exile in the 2nd century B. C. This study challenges the Old Testament scholarship based on the historical-critical method, and suggest how to read the Book of Daniel as the canon.
