Son of Man, son of man

Definition:

The title, "Son of Man" was used by Jesus to refer to himself. He often used this term instead of saying "I" or "me."

In the Bible, "son of man" can be a way of referring to or addressing a man. It can also mean "human being."
Throughout the Old Testament book of Ezekiel, God frequently addresses Ezekiel as "son of man." For example he says, "You, son of man, must prophesy."
The prophet Daniel saw a vision of a "son of man" coming with the clouds, which is a reference to the coming Messiah.
Jesus also said that the Son of Man will be coming back someday on the clouds.
These references to the Son of Man coming on the clouds reveal that Jesus the Messiah is God.

When Jesus uses the term "Son of Man," this could be translated as, "the One who became a human being" or "the Man from heaven."
Some translators occasionally include "I" or "me" with this title (as in, "I, the Son of Man") to make it clear that Jesus is talking about himself.
Check to make sure that the translation of this term does not give a wrong meaning (such as referring to an illegitimate son or giving the wrong impression that Jesus was only a human being).
When used to refer to a person, "son of man" could also be translated as, "you, a human being" or "you, man" or "human being" or "man."
