Excerpt from The Message of the Son of Man
The present treatise invites the general reader to take a brief and comprehensive view of the results of a long and detailed investigation into the meaning of Christ's self-appellation, in which the investigator starts from the hypothesis that Jesus was more likely to be influenced by the jewish scriptures than by the Jewish apocrypha. The latter should certainly be called in to our aid, but, in the author's judgment, not until the former have been fully utilised.

Excerpt from The Message of the Son of Man
If we had to select from the gospels two or three phrases that seemed fittest to give a clue to the meaning of Christs deepest doctrine, "the Son of Man" would seem to claim a place in the selection.
It is applied to Christ in all the four gospels, and that frequently, and near the end, as well as near the beginning, of His career. It never proceeds from a friend, never from an enemy, never from an evangelist or neutral relator, but practically always from our Lord Himself. This self-appellation is connected, sometimes with a claim to authority; sometimes with a recognition that the Claimant has been rejected; sometimes with predictions that He is destined to suffer and to die and to be raised up; sometimes with descriptions of a future Coming in glory. If we could understand why He chose this unvarying title to describe Himself amid such various circumstances, we might gain more insight into His conception of the nature of His mission.

Librería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the title âSon of Manâ uttered by Jesus in all four gospels, a term used in the Old Testament to refer to Ezekiel and, once, to Daniel. The author argues Jesus chose this title intentionally because of the parallels between himself and Ezekiel, who saw a vision of 'the appearance of a man' above the Throne in heaven. The author believes that the title implied a divine element to Man, a belief that Jesus aimed to emphasize. In their view, Jesus saw himself as embodying the humanity of God and divinity of Man, highlighting the possibilities of humanity rather than the superiority of God. By centering the discussion on the Old Testament, the author illuminates the rich historical and cultural context of Jesusâ teachings, shedding light on how his message resonated with his audience and the significance of his emphasis on the âSon of Manâ title.
