Translations:Son of man/4/en

From TSL Encyclopedia

The term Son of man finds great elaboration in the Book of Enoch. It has long been thought that Jesus’ use of the term in referring to himself originated with Daniel 7:13. But prominent scholars believe that it was the Book of Enoch which provided this key term to Jesus.[1]
