Why is Jesus called the 'Son of Man'?

The title 'Son of Man' used by Jesus highlights two central aspects of His identity. Firstly, it signifies His complete humanity, affirming that He is fully God and fully man, as seen in Philippians 2:7, where He took on the form of a servant. Secondly, it underscores His role as the representative of humanity. In Daniel 7:13-14, the 'Son of Man' is depicted as receiving authority and glory, further affirming His divine mission. Through this title, Jesus connects with human experience, understanding our struggles, and ultimately, becoming our Savior as the second Adam, who redeems those lost through the first Adam's sin.
