There are three main versions of the Book of Daniel; a twelve-chapter version preserved in the Masoretic Text and two longer Greek versions (the original Septuagint version, c. 100 BCE, and the later Theodotion version, c. 2nd century CE). Both the Greek versions contain chapters that are not found in the Masoretic Text.

Famous quotes containing the word sources:

    I count him a great man who inhabits a higher sphere of thought, into which other men rise with labor and difficulty; he has but to open his eyes to see things in a true light, and in large relations; whilst they must make painful corrections, and keep a vigilant eye on many sources of error.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
