Reading for June 9th

Read Daniel 7.9-14 In verse 9: An Ancient One (literally, "one Ancient of days"); God. The portrayal of the divine court builds upon the tradition in 1 Kings 22; Isa 6; Ezek 1; Ps 82; Job 1. In verse 13: One like a human being: Literally, "one like a son of man" (compare "mortal," literally, "son of man/adam," in Ezek 21.), a designation for a human being, in this case a messiah figure who will rule the world as king.
