If the Son of Man is, the reasoning goes (NOT: see Mark 14:61-62),
the Messiah (the Christ) seated at the right hand of Power & coming with the clouds of heaven,
how could the term "Son of Man" have been used by Yeshua to refer to his earthly life? The scholar-ship then has to go to great lenths to determine which of the Son of Man sayings "JC" could have, might have, or did say & which were added by the Early Church - the disciples or the euangelists - & put in his mouth? If, however, we understand that the designation Son of Man refers not to a single stage in the narrative of Yeshua - birth, incarnation, sovereignty on earth, death, resurrection, or exalta-tion - but to all of these together, then these problems are entirely obviated. If Yeshu (whether the "historical" Yeshua or the Yehoshua portrayed in the Gospels) believed that he was the Son of Man, he was so from the beginning to end of the story, not just at one mo-ment within it. The Son of Man is the name of a narrative & its protagonist. This narrative, the narrative that Yeshu understood himself to embody, grows out of a reading of the story of the career of the "one like a Son of Man" in the Book of Daniel. In Daniel 7, we find the following account of the prophet's NIGHT VISION:
"AS I WATCHED, THRONES WERE SET IN PLACE, AND AN ANCIENT ONE TOOK HIS THRONE, HIS CLOTHING WAS WHITE AS SNOW, AND THE HAIR OF HIS HEAD LIKE PURE WOOL, HIS THRONE WAS FIERY FLAMES, AND IT'S WHEELS WERE BURNING FIRE. A STREAM OF FIRE ISSUED AND FLOWED OUT FROM HIS PRESENCE. AND A THOUSAND THOUSANDS SERVED HIM, & THE THOUSAND TIMES TEN THOUSAND STOOD ATTENDING HIM. THE COURT SAT IN JUDG-MENT, & THE BOOKS WERE OPENED ... AS I WATCHED IN THE NIGHT VISIONS, I SAW ONE LIKE A SON OF MAN (HUMAN BEING) WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN. AND HE CAME TO THE ANCIENT ONE AND WAS PRESENTED BEFORE HIM. TO HIM WAS GIVEN DOMINION AND GLORY AND KINGSHIP, THAT ALL PEOPLES, NATIONS, AND LANGUAGES SHOULD SERVE HIM. HIS DOMINION IS AN EVERLASTING DO-MINION THAT SHALL NOT PASS AWAY, AND HIS KINGSHIPIS ONE THAT SHALL NEVER BE DESTROYED.
Kortom:
alles wat we van Yesjoe weten kwam tot ons via SP, euangelies (Dani'el)!
Hij werd waarschijnlijk geboren vóór 't jaar "0", kwam uit Egypte & later Galilea.
Zwierf minstens een paar jaar rond tussen Tsidon & Yeroesjalayiem, Chermon & de Dode Zoutzee, sprak met mensen onderweg & 'genas ze'. Hij werd gevolgd door 'Velen', gekruisigd & over hem werden allerlei verhalen verteld tot & met duizenden jaren later. Niemand weet 't exact ... Blijkbaar sprak hij mensen van alle tijden & plaatsen zó aan dat hij ahw. de mensenrechten voorspelde & uitlegde 'voor die tijd/plaats!
Nu dan toch nog maar even 'n klein dutje doen & de rest overlaten aan 'droomland'?! 't Is maar net wat je erin wilt zien ...
