Jeff, I really like you explaining this. I learned a lot. I have another question: Why was Ezekiel called Son of man?
I was wondering the exact same thing. Great minds think alike. I love how Ezekiel constantly writes “son of man”…
Greetings Mr.Jeff,
Thoughts :-
-> Answering message reflect with, "Lord Jesus Christ is Holy Messenger connecting Adam and God in Immaculate birth on all accounts in every aspects of Life."
-> Thanks Mr.Jeff, Team Ascension Press for Valuable Insights.
With regards,
Ranjith Joseph (R.J)
Thank you, Jeff. Very helpful.
I agree with this interpretation
Jude 1,14 refers explicitly to the book of Enoch 1.9.
Enoch chapters 48 and 62 have a clear description of the Son of Man too,
with language that is very similar to what we find in several places in the New Testament.
Thanks for clarifying this term.
Thank you very much Father Jeff. I would like it if you could go more in depth on this subject. As the commenter below mentioned, it is used elsewhere. Also, why is this a messianic title etc? Like most of the people who comment, we are hungry for more and more. Thank you! Daniel
You’d have to take an unpointed paleoHebrew & Aramaic course to understand what BarEnasha (‘son of man’) means in Aramaic Daniel 7:13ff ‘and I look’d and behold, I saw, lo, one like unto a BarEnasha who approach’d the Ancient of Days and unto him was given an everlasting kingdom that will never end’- the Daviddic dynasty is probably referred-to here but there is an element of the role of ‘judge’ at the last judgement where ‘the Ancient of Days’ raises up the dead, and the job of the barEnasha is to separate the sheep from the goats-the righteous Torah observers from those ‘who flout the Torah in the midst of the Congregation’ in the ‘last days’
Ev’ry reference to ‘the Son of Man’ placed into the mouth of a Greek-speaking ‘ho Iesous’ in both the synoptic canonical Greek gospels & John must be understood in the light of Aramaic Daniel 7:13-26 - tho’ few modern persons who style themselves as ‘Christians’ even know this - much like their gross ignorance of 2nd Temple Judaeism, the Apocalyptic writings found among the Dead Sea scroll corpus and a close-study of the text of the Hebrew Torah & Prophets
*These words are not mine.* These are the words the Ruach HaKodesh (YAHUAH's Set-Apart Spirit) uttered through me when I prayed to YAHUAH; asking him what *he wants* me to say, knowing the truth. To the chosen:
"Know that YAHUAH is the name of the Most High and YAHUsha is the name of The Son.
Come out of her, my people, who have fallen to the deceit of Constantine. Who know not my name and say they love me. I have made myself known. I have heard you and I am here.
There are many who are yours to be saved. I am he who knows all that you are. Come to me, here are they who are mine. Make haste to come, here are we. Give in to them who speak of me, they are yours. I am here for you. Know that all is for them, here are we.
Give not to them that are against me. I am he who sees all you do. Come to me out of her, all are here for me. Do what I say. Out of her, come. All are here."
Exodus 3:13-15 KJV
13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.
15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
John 5:43 KJV
43 *I am come in my Father's name,* and ye receive me not: *if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.*
2 Corinthians 6:17 KJV
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and *touch not the unclean thing;* *and I will receive you.*
Isaiah 52:6-7 KJV
6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV
1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
Romans 10:1-3 KJV
1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Romans 10:13-17 KJV
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 *How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?*
15 *And how shall they preach, except they be sent?* as it is written, *How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!*
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. *For Esaias saith,* Lord, *who hath believed our report?*
17 *So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.*
Nahum 1:7 KJV
7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and *he knoweth them that trust in him.*
Hebrews 3:15 KJV
15 *While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.*
Isaiah 52:11 KJV
11 *Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing;* go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord.
John 14:15 KJV
15 *If ye love me, keep my commandments.*

in this world there's a to kinds of people the sons and daughters of man and sons and daughters of something else
You are reading from a book that says a thing.
Why do you think this book is from a god when one has never ever been shown to exist, please?
Thanks
Did that make you feel better?
@@CScott-wh5yk Hi CS, interesting!
"Did that make you feel better?"
How do you feel about it?
What do you think of my comment?
Do tell, please.
Do you think there is a god then?
@@grayintheuk8021your attempt at baiting someone into a debate is obvious and tired. Answers in Genesis Book 1 addresses this topic at length; if you’re truly curious then it should be a good starting point.
@@username00009 Presumably I would need to purchase it from aig?
@@username00009 To be honest "Answers in Genesis" is a flat-out joke.
However, a sad joke as some gullible people believe in a.i.g.'s utter fictional nonsense that is not peer-reviewed because it is utter rubbish.
I disagree with your interpretation.
1 Corinthians 15:44-46
King James Version
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
(47) 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; THE SECOND “”MAN”” IS THE LORD FROM HEAVEN. ( here is your context)
Jesus bore the wrath of God ( as a man to be a substitute for us) when he died on the cross; and it pictures the death, burial and resurrection of the saved sinner who is in Christ (Rom. 6:3-5)
John 1:1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
( vs14 and the word became flesh and dwelt amongst us. (Jesus Christ)
Romans 3:25
King James Version
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
Here’s my observation. I read along the BIAY with the King James Version for awhile. I found opposing words from one text to another. It was quite disturbing. This went on for months until we got to the Deuteroconanicals (sp) especially started in Esther. They left so much out in KJV I bought yet another Bible to follow better. We are on day 282 when my book arrived yesterday to read 1 Maccabee not in KJV. Teachings are different indeed
@@denisern55 Hi Denise, Yes,I agree with you there is opposing words of over two hundred modern bibles including all the Catholic bibles comparing to the 1611 KJV
the authorized Majority text “1611 King James Bible” that is rooted from copies of copies from Antioch were the first Christians started is the word of God.
Compared to “sinaiticus” and vaticanus “ Modern corrupt manuscripts.
Example Douay Reheims “ The original “Catholic bible” reads word for word.
Douay Rheims 1Corinthians 3:15
15)If any man's work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.( Notice the same words as the KJV but they added a coma, instead of a semicolon in the KJV )
Notice how the words changed in a more recent modern Catholic Bible ,New American Standard same verse.
1 Corinthians 3:15 NAB
15But if someone's work is burned up, that one will suffer loss; the person will be saved,* but only as one fleeing through fire.( Notice the Catholic Church just created by this corrupt anti biblical verse “ purgatory”)
1611 King James Bible
If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
(;semicolon pulls the verses together and reconfirms you are saved : yet so as by fire)
Ephesians 1:13 KJB
13] In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, ( when you are saved, you are sealed with the Holy Spirt of promise. The Holy Spirt is not going to purgatory with you when you are sealed by God.)
This is one example of many.
Read these verses 1Corinthians 15:1-4 , Ephesians 2:8-9 , Roman’s 3:25 to be saved, and one hundred percent Gods word that cannot lie for eternity salvation.
By Grace through Faith in Christ alone is to be redeemed by his blood to wash all your sins.
The apostle Paul is the apostle to the Gentiles for salvation in a different dispensation, the whole Bible is to us, but not all of it is for us.
If scripture contradicts Paul’s writings through Jesus Christ it is not for us.
Matthew, Mark, luke and John is “ Who” Jesus is.” God manifested in the flesh. He says I only come to the lost sheep of Israel, “ Jews” they rejected him as a nation, so he commissioned the apostle Paul to bring the”Gentiles in for salvation this is “ What “ Jesus did for us. His death, burial and resurrection, By trusting in Christ alone through Faith in his blood to wash your sins clean. “ Not of works” , it’s a gift of God.
Blessings!
@@denisern55 The “ Deuteroconanical” books are not given by inspiration of God.
Example there is a difference ,” dispensation “ between the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament was written in the “ original Hebrew” language. The New Testament was written in the original Greek language.
The “Deuteroconical” books are Old Testament writings by unknown authors, but they were written in the “ New Testament “Greek language “ which is incorrect.
The Jewish councils rejected them from being inspired, for they are authoritative on the the old mosaic laws,and the Old Testament,of course they reject Jesus today in the New Testament teachings as their messiah, but he is coming back to them in the Tribulation timeline, to prove to them he is their messiah. Romans 11
The Catholic Church follows the Old Testament works plus Faith gospel, “purgatory, Penance, temporal punishments, sacraments Ect. Even copying Leviticus priests attires of wearing “ priestly robes.
Catechism page 39: section 81,82 The Catholic Church is uncertain about the Holy scriptures so they mix man’s traditions with it.
Creating a false works plus Faith salvation.
The scriptures teaches we are saved by grace through faith alone.
Blessings!
