Summary:Mosca suggested that the Ancient of Days in Daniel 7 can be related to the hymn in Psalm 89:2-3, 6-19.

It draws the conclusion that not only the hymn, but also the oracle in Psalm 89:20- 38 as well as the complaint in Psalm 89:39-52 functioned as intertext in the composition of Daniel's heavenly vision in Daniel 7.
