“Son of Man” a Human Being
The expression “son of man” occurs frequently in the OT as a synonym for “man”—a son of man is by nature man himself. It is a Semitic idiom signifying “human being.” Virtually all of the 107 occurrences of the expression bear this out.

And in fact Jesus himself confirms this for us, explicitly associating himself with Daniel’s “son of man” (Matt. 26:63–64). This is in fac...
New Testament scholars have noticed three broad associations with Jesus’ use of this self-designation.
Man created in God’s image is designed to rule over God’s creation as his vice-regent. This exalted status was forfeited by sin, but in Jesus, the True Man, humanity is redeemed and restored. He is the Son of Man, the transcendent Messiah, who by his saving work has earned a universal kingship that is being exercised now in rescuing his people, one...
Feb 25, 2021 · Jesus being the son of man means that he is the leader of mankind. Since he is for us, and he is now seated at the right hand of the power of God, this means we have a way to connect with God the Father, and we can also make a difference here in this world we live in.
