Be Ye Transformed / Episode 29
Why Jesus Calls Himself the Son of Man
In this episode, I explore the biblical title "Son of Man" as it relates to Jesus. I trace the term from the Old Testament in Ezekiel, where it simply means human being, to Daniel's vision of a divine, eternal ruler. I then examine how Jesus applies this title to himself throughout the Gospels, referencing his humanity, suffering, authority to forgive sins, and future glory. Combining these insights with my previous episode on "Son of God," I conclude that Scripture naturally portrays Jesus as both fully human and fully divine.
