As a Reformed Christian, I take a Christological reading of Daniel 7:13–14:
Daniel 7:13-14 (ESV)
13 “I saw in the night visions,
and behold, with the clouds of heaven
there came one like a son of man,
and he came to the Ancient of Days
and was presented before him.
14 And to him was given dominion
and glory and a kingdom,
that all peoples, nations, and languages
should serve him;
his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
which shall not pass away,
and his kingdom one
that shall not be destroyed.
I’m interested in Jewish interpretations of this text. Is it still understood to be Messianic? In particular, who is the “son of man” and why the differential of this person from the Ancient of Days?
