Son of Man & the Ancient of Days | Revelation 1:13-14

#SonOfMan #ancientofdays #daniel

In this teaching we will examine the One like a Son of Man from Daniel 7 and his relationship to the Ancient of Days. There are two old version of Daniel in Greek that equate the Son of Man with the Ancient of Days. John seems to be using these texts as his reference point in Revelation 1:13-15. What are the implications of this for our understanding of inspiration? Of Christology? Of Daniel 7?
