Doctrine and Covenants D&C 138:38

Shared words: the Ancient of Days

'Ancient of Days' stands at exactly six distinct frozen verses in the corpus, counted case-insensitively: Daniel 7:9, 7:13, 7:22, D&C 27:11, D&C 116:1, and D&C 138:38. The count folds a case difference the page discloses. In the prophecy the title belongs to an unnamed enthroned figure; in the Doctrine and Covenants carriers it is applied to Adam. That identification is the Doctrine and Covenants' own; whether the prophecy's figure is the same figure is not settled here. Registered at the 2026-08-11 editorial review.
