The prophet Daniel “beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit. . . . 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” (Daniel 7:9, 13). Most commentators in the Christian world believe this to be a reference to God, but Joseph Smith learned by revelation that it is in fact a reference to Michael, who is Adam. In chronicling the persons who will be in attendance at the council at Adam-ondi-Ahman, the revelation mentions Moroni, Elias, John the Baptist, Elijah, Joseph, Jacob, Isaac, and Abraham, “and also . . . Michael, or Adam, the father of all, the prince of all, the ancient of days” (D&C 27:5–11).— LDS Beliefs
