It is common for some Christadelphians to claim, with some qualifications, that Jesus is the Ancient of Days of Daniel 7. While disputing this identification, Harry Whittaker noted that it is “a commonly held theory”:
The
Ancient of Days and the Son of Man (Daniel 7:9-10, 13-14)
Before embarking on a detailed
study of the Four Beasts of chapter 7, it is convenient to examine with some
care the verses about the heavenly Being described here.
There is a commonly held theory
that:
the Ancient of Days = the
glorified Christ
the Son of Man = the community of the saints.
This is quite wrong, as will be
seen by and by. Apart from all the mass of Bible evidence, the two titles, when
so applied, are hopeless misnomers. Who would ‘the Ancient of Days’ be but the
Almighty Himself? and ‘Son of Man’ is, of course, the Lord Jesus. (Harry
