Of all the titles Jesus could choose — Messiah, Son of God, King of Israel — He most often called Himself “Son of Man.”

This wasn’t humility.
It was prophecy fulfilled.

Daniel wrote,
“One like the Son of Man… to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom.”
Daniel 7:13–14

“Son of Man” is not a lesser title.
It is the title of the coming King.

Jesus wasn’t hiding His identity.
He was revealing it.

Every time He said “Son of Man,” He was pointing His people to the One Daniel saw —
the One who would rule the nations,
the One who would judge in righteousness,
the One who would return in glory.

The title is a window into His mission:
fully God, fully man, fully King.
