(DB)
From Son
of G d to Son of Man.
Who was Jesus? The conventional view,
of course, is that "Son of G d" is the decisive title
for 'our' Yeshu. It is by this title that Yeshua is held to be part
of the s.c. "Trinity": Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It is as the Son of G d
that he is worshipped as 'divine'; it is as the (a!) Son of G d that he was deemed
to have given to be sacrificed in order that the world might be redeemed.
But things are not quite THAT simple. First of all, interestingly enough,
the term "Son of G d" is not often used to refer to Jesus
in the so called New Testament (NOT:
Not Old Testament). In Paul (Shaul
Paulos: SP), the much more
common term is
"Lord!"


In the Gospels,
JC is more likely to be referred to
(or actually to refer to HIMSELF) by the title "Son of Man!"

Most Christians today, if they have thought about it at all, would think
that by this title, Son of Man, Jesus' human nature is being designated, while
the title "Son of G d" refers to his 'divine nature'? This was indeed the interpretation
of most of 'Fathers of the Church'. A new bible translation called the Common English Bible
has gone so far ad to translate "Son of Man" as "the human one!" Now I (DB) will show that almost
the opposite was the case in the Gospel of Mark: "Son of G d" referred to the king of Israel,
the earthly king of David's seat (& 'seed'?), while "Son of Man"
referred to a heavenly figure and not a human at all!

The title "Son of Man" denoted Jesus as a part of G d,
while the title "Son of G d" indicated his status as King Messiah.
But what is the Messiah & how does it relate to the Christ? Truth be told,
they were very exactly the same thing, or at any rate the same word: Messiah
(in Hebrew pronounced "mashiach"knipoog means "anointed one," nor more or less,
and Christos is simply a Greek translation of that very word,
meaning also "anointed one." As the Gospel of John
tells us forthrightly:
"HE FIRST FINDETH HIS OWN BROTHER SIMON, AND SAITH UNTO HIM, WE HAVE FOUND THE MASHIACH!",
which is, being translated, the Christ! (John 1:42).

't Mooist
aan dit alles
is zowel 't particuliere
als 't universele algemene?
Iedereen ver-langt bewust of onbewust
naar zo'n soort van 'vader- of moederfiguur, 'n leraar/lerares,
'werkgever', 'geneesheer', 'helper', 'rotssteen' of leider om 'alle problemen op te lossen', zorgend
voor voldoende zekerheid, regelmatige koestering, inperking van bezorgheid,
permanente behulpzaamheid, groter geneeskracht,
tedere bemoediging & al
wat maar menselijk is.

't Onbegrepene
wil gevat worden,
't geheimzinnige ontsluierd,
't kleine gewaardeerd
& 't zwakke
gesterkt
