In Revelation chapter 1, the apostle John describes the risen Jesus with hair white like wool and white as snow, the same imagery the prophet Daniel used for the Ancient of Days seated on a throne of fire in Daniel chapter 7.

The two distinct figures in Daniel 7:13-14, the seated Ancient of Days and the Son of Man who comes on the clouds to receive an everlasting kingdom. How John uses Daniel's exact phrase "One like the Son of Man" for Jesus and then adds the Ancient of Days' hair, using the Greek w
