5:20 – Who Is Jesus Christ? Unlocking the Mystery in the Gospel of Matthew
Christ's contemporaries ascribed many names and titles to Him, as we see recorded in the New Testament. Each one tells us something different about who Jesus is. Eric Sammons joins us to frame a series of thoughtful reflections on the names of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew with references from the Church Fathers, saints, and Doctors of the Church. He translates the depth of the mystery of the Faith so we can discover new dimensions of the person of Christ and new ways to recognize and welcome Him into our lives.

There was discussion on today's program regarding the term 'Son of Man' as Jesus most often referred to himself. Is it possible this expression is better translated as the Son of Humanity or the Human. Jesus is referring to himself as the human Incarnation of the Word of God. We were all made in the image and likeness of God. I think of the human nature of our Lord Jesus as 'The Human'. Meaning - He is, so to speak, the 'Gold Standard' of humanity and we are all modeled from that perfect standard. It makes better sense to me when I think of Jesus referring to himself as 'The Human' rather than just plain, 'a human'. "Son of Man" loses meaning in the translation from his spoken Aramaic. Jesus our Lord, who is the human nature of I AM (and the divine nature of I AM) , who is the incarnation of the Word, is 'The Human' which might be the real way Jesus referred to himself most often. I feel 'The Human' (with the word 'the' in use)is a better translation than the expression, 'Son of Man.' I am not into making up my own dogma, I do not know if what i am saying is true, I am merely offering a few thoughts where I am unaware of any church teaching. These are just thoughts, not beliefs.
