This bookis the first ever collection of scholarly essays in
English devoted specifically to the theme of the expression 'son of
man'. Itdescribes the major competing theories which have addressed
questions such as: What is the original Aramaic expression which
lies behind the Greek phrase, and what was its original
connotation? How do the gospel writers use the expression 'son of
man'? Is it a Christological title, pregnant with meaning, much
like the titles son of God, Christ/Messiah, and son of David? Is it
used as a way of designating Jesus as a human being of unique
redemptive significance? Or does it rather originate in a nuanced
use (obscured in Greek translation) of an Aramaic expression used
in place of the first person pronoun, as an indefinite pronoun, or
for generic statements about human beings? Larry Hurtado and Paul
Owen have brought together contributing scholars on the basis of
theirexpertise in Aramaic, historical Jesus research, the son of
man debate itself, and related fields of research.
