"'''Son of Man'''" is how [[Jesus]] frequently referred to himself, but something is lost in the translation.  A fuller rendition of the Greek (υἱός ἄνθρωπος [sic!]) in English would be "Christ, Son of [[God]]," "Son of Man from God," "God became man," "God descended as man," or "God as a man."  John 9:35 does not make sense as merely "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"

The term highlights Jesus's humanity and how He came to serve and save mankind, but its translation should also emphasize that Jesus was God and not merely man.  The term also illustrates how the [[best of the public]] comes from ordinary people rather than the elite.
