• Jesus’ Christological titles are significant for understanding his nature, message, and mission. Along with Son of God, Son of David, and Christ (or Messiah), the title Son of Man is perhaps the least understood. During the Second Temple Period, a variety of enigmatic figures, such as Enoch, Melchizedek, and Abel (the Son of Adam) began to appear in Jewish literature and theology as figures associated with eschatological concepts, including the Son of Man. How did Jesus of Nazareth fit within this ancient purview? The Gospel of Mark is one source that offers insight into how this character was envisioned, along with new features that Jesus’ embodied during his earthly ministry. This session will consider the historical and theological development of the Son of Man, along with its connections to the Day of Yahweh. How Jesus was perceived as Son of Man by his followers and how the title informed his ministry and the formation of the early Church will be considered.
