In T.Ab. 11-12, as in Daniel 7,
two thrones are set up, one for the major figure (God = the Ancient of
Days in Daniel, Adam in Testament of Abraham), who is described as brilliantly
radiant and awe-inspiring, and the other for the secondary figure ("one
like a son of man" in Daniel, Abel "the son of Adam" in Testament
of Abraham), who is given or associated with the task of judging. (Joel
Marcus, "Son of Man as Son
of Adam," Revue Biblique 110, no. 1 [January 2003]: 59 n. 81)
