This article demonstrates connections between doxologies in Daniel and Psalms, suggesting their dating involves shared theological themes.
Redaction critics have dated the doxologies in Daniel 4–6 based on the theme of God’s eternal kingdom, which they share with Psalm 145. This article attempts to show that there are many other linguistic features and theological assertions shared by the doxologies in Daniel 2–6 and Psalm 145, as well as the doxologies in Jeremiah 10:1–16, which might be relevant to dating the composition of the doxologies in Daniel 2–6. Their occurrence in the apocalyptic vision in Daniel 7 suggests that the author/redactors of Daniel 7 might be responsible for the doxologies in Daniel.
