He is the God of All Wisdom
The God of Daniel, John, and You His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow. —REVELATION 1:14 This is where the revelation of Jesus clearly identifies with God the Father. John’s mind must have been filled with the images of Daniel’s vision. I watched till thrones were put in place, and the Ancient of Days was seated; His garment was white as snow, and the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was a fiery flame. —DANIEL 7:9 Jesus wore the same garment, a linen robe as white as snow. The hair of His head was pure like wool. The interchangeable use of white and pure point us to this revelation. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire.” —REVELATION 1:14 This vision of Daniel is the first place where white is attributed to God. The law of first mention applies strongly here. Jesus’ “head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow,” the same as the Father. This reveals four attributes of Jesus: His absolute authority, His absolute wisdom, His absolute purity, and His absolute authority as judge. The scene is important. God comes to the court of heaven ready to oversee and judge the earth. “The court was seated, and the books were opened” (Dan. 7:10) Jesus’ Absolute Authority to Judge I was watching in the night visions, and behold, One like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. Then 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. I was watching; and the same horn was making war against the saints, and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days came, and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom. —DANIEL 7:13–14, 21–22 ...
