Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Ancient of days came—The title applied to the Father in Daniel 7:13 is here applied to the Son; who is called "the everlasting Father" (Isaiah 9:6). The Father is never said to "come"; it is the Son who comes.
judgment was given to . . . saints—Judgment includes rule; "kingdom" in the end of this verse (I Corinthians 6:2; Revelation 1:6; Revelation 5:10; Revelation 20:4). Christ first receives "judgment" and the "kingdom," then the saints with Him (Daniel 7:13-14).
