Deep dives

Jesus' claim in front of the Sanhedrin

During Jesus' trial, the high priest asked him if he was the Messiah, to which Jesus replied, 'I am, and all of you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the power and coming with the clouds of heaven.' By referring to himself as the Son of Man, Jesus was fulfilling a prophecy in the Book of Daniel and declaring himself to be the eternal sovereign Lord. This claim was considered blasphemy and led to his execution.
