Daniel 7:13 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

One like the Son of man; that is, the Messiah: this is the same with the stone, Da 2; he came with the clouds of heaven, Matthew 24:30, i.e. gloriously, swiftly, and terribly, Jeremiah 4:13. They brought him near before him: this relates to his ascension, Acts 1:9-11, at which time, though King before, Matthew 2:2, yet now, and not before, he seems to receive his royal investiture for the protection of his church and the curbing of their enemies, which he says he had before, Matthew 28:18 1 Corinthians 15:25 Daniel 2:44.

Daniel 7:13

13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
