The title Son of Man is ambiguous and flexible. It might simply mean 'a male in the human race'; it might be more. Jesus uses it as his preferred title when referring to himself. Throughout the gospel of Mark Jesus uses this title to speak about three aspect of his ministry: his ministry of forgiveness and healing; his suffering and death on the cross; his future return in glory. Jesus makes it clear that Daniel 7 is the key background to this title.
This week we will learn about humility and service as a call for all those who follow the Son of Man.
