Daniel 7:13

'They will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory' directly cites Daniel 7:13, 'one like a son of man came with the clouds of heaven.' This is the christological centerpiece of the discourse; Mark adds 'power and glory' from the dominion granted in 7:14, and the title 'Son of Man' is the load-bearing self-designation throughout Mark.

'Coming with the clouds of the sky' quotes Daniel's vision of 'one like a son of man' who comes 'with the clouds of heaven' and is given everlasting dominion before the Ancient of Days. Mark fuses this with Psalm 110 into a single declaration, so that the Son of Man both sits enthroned and comes in glory; the conflation is the theological summit of Mark's Christology.

'you will see the Son of Man... coming on the clouds of the sky' (v64) cites Daniel's vision of 'one like a son of man' coming 'with the clouds of heaven'; this self-identification triggers the blasphemy charge.

Being 'caught up together... in the clouds, to meet the Lord' draws on the vision of one like a son of man coming 'with the clouds of heaven.' The cloud imagery of glorious eschatological encounter is Danielic.

'A cloud received him out of their sight,' and the angels promise he 'will come back in the same way.' Volume: the cloud as the vehicle of the exalted Son of Man is the distinctive Danielic image (one 'coming with the clouds of heaven'). Luke reverses and reaffirms the trajectory — ascent now, return on clouds later. Recurrence: strong in Luke-Acts' Son-of-Man Christology (Luke 21:27; 22:69). Thematic coherence high; the cloud signals heavenly enthronement, the very kingship the disciples asked about in v.6.

'The Son of Man standing at the right hand of God' fuses Daniel's vision of 'one like the Son of man' coming with the clouds with the right-hand enthronement.

The title 'Son of Man,' here joined to suffering and to coming 'in his glory' (v.26), draws on Daniel's heavenly figure who receives dominion and glory. Strong availability and coherence; Luke fuses Danielic glory with Isaianic suffering.

The title 'the Son of Man' and his sudden, heaven-spanning revelation derive from Daniel's one like a son of man coming with the clouds of heaven. This is the controlling OT source for the entire 'days of the Son of Man' discourse, giving high Volume, Recurrence, and Coherence.

"The Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" (v.10) draws on Dan 7:13-14, where "one like a son of man" is given dominion and authority before the Ancient of Days. High distinctiveness in the title plus the keyword "authority" (exousia), which Mark recurs at 2:28 and the eschatological discourse (13:26). Mark transposes the heavenly investiture into earthly authority.

"The Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath" (v.28) again invokes the Danielic figure given universal dominion, here extended to lordship over the sacred day. The keyword authority/lordship recurs from v.10, binding the chapter's two Son of Man sayings to Dan 7:13-14. High distinctiveness in the title and the claim of comprehensive authority.

'The Son of Man' as Jesus' self-designation derives from the one 'like a son of man' who comes to the Ancient of Days and receives dominion. Mark fuses this exalted figure with the suffering of the Servant. The title's repeated appearance in Mark and its Danielic root make the allusion strong.

'One like a son of man came with the clouds of heaven.' 10:23, 'until the Son of Man has come,' draws its title and its coming-in-judgment expectation from Daniel's vision; the apocalyptic horizon of the persecution sayings is Danielic.

'they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory' is a strong allusion to Daniel 7:13, 'one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven,' to whom dominion and glory are given; the title and the cloud-coming are Danielic.

'He is coming with the clouds' lifts Daniel's 'one like a son of man' coming 'with the clouds of the sky.' Very high verbal volume and recurrence (this is Revelation's signature christophany text); John applies Daniel's heavenward enthronement to Christ's parousia toward earth.

'One like a son of man' is verbatim from Dan 7:13. High recurrence (cf. 1:7); John strikingly transfers to this 'son of man' the white-wool hair that Daniel gives the Ancient of Days, identifying Christ with God.

'One like a son of man came with the clouds of heaven' — directly behind 'on the cloud one sitting like a son of man.' Highest verbal density; LXX/Theodotion 'hos huios anthropou.' The golden crown develops the dominion given him.

The title 'Son of Man' coming with heaven (v.51) draws on the heavenly one 'like a son of man' who approaches the Ancient of Days. John fuses the Danielic Son of Man with the Jacob's-ladder vision; medium because the borrowing is the title and the opened-heaven setting rather than a quotation.

'Son of Man' coming with the clouds of heaven supplies the title and the heaven-earth movement that John reworks as descent/ascent. Recurrent Johannine Son-of-Man usage gives coherence, though here the motion is reversed.

'What if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?' (v.62) trades on the Danielic Son of Man who comes with the clouds before the Ancient of Days; John reverses the vector to ascent. Provides the title's apocalyptic Availability.

The title 'Son of Man,' the figure whose fate the prophets foretell, derives from Daniel's heavenly one given dominion; Luke pairs the suffering with this exalted title pointing toward vindication and resurrection on the third day. The Son of Man designation carries Danielic resonance even in a passion context. Medium coherence.

The angels recall Jesus' words that 'the Son of Man must be delivered up... and the third day rise again.' The Son of Man title and his vindication/exaltation derive from Daniel 7, where the one like a son of man is brought before the Ancient of Days and given dominion. The vindication-after-suffering motif coheres with Luke's whole chapter.

The self-designation 'Son of Man' draws on the heavenly figure 'like a son of man' who receives dominion; a recurrent Matthean title with strong thematic weight even where the immediate sense is the homeless human Jesus.

'the Son of Man' (20:18) carries the Danielic title; here paradoxically the exalted Danielic figure is the one delivered up to death, a Matthean recurrence of the title.

'the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified' (v2) deploys the apocalyptic Son of Man title that Matthew unfolds fully at 26:64; here in a passion-prediction key the exalted figure is paradoxically handed over.

'Do you believe in the Son of Man?' (a strong textual variant for 'Son of God') invokes the Danielic Son of Man before whom worship is rendered, fitting the man's response of belief and worship in 9:38. The link depends on the variant reading, so confidence is low though the title is Danielic.

The recurring 'Son of Man' title keeps the Danielic figure in view even as Luke subverts expectation toward suffering. Recurrence across vv.22, 26, 44 builds cumulative volume.

Standing 'before the Son of Man' recalls the Danielic court scene where the saints are vindicated before the one like a son of man given dominion. The closing exhortation ties the paraenesis back to Daniel 7, the discourse's controlling vision. Coherence by inclusio with 21:27.

The title 'Son of Man,' twice used in this pericope, derives from Daniel's heavenly figure, here paradoxically joined to suffering. Mark fuses Danielic exaltation with Isaianic suffering. The recurrence of the title throughout Mark anchors the Danielic source.

The title 'Son of Man' carries Danielic weight even when joined to betrayal and death, fusing exaltation with suffering. The recurrence across Mark's passion predictions establishes the Danielic source. Here the paradox of the heavenly figure killed is sharpest.

Jesus' self-designation 'the Son of Man goes, even as it is written about him' presupposes the scriptural Son-of-Man figure that Mark will name explicitly in v. 62, framing his death as the destined path of that figure. The phrase 'as it is written' signals a scriptural script even though no single text is quoted, with Daniel 7 as the governing Son-of-Man matrix.

the title 'Son of Man' carries the Danielic resonance even as the figure is led to suffering, holding exaltation and humiliation together.

The apocalyptic 'visions' frame and the motif of being shown heavenly realities draw on Danielic seer-vision conventions, where Daniel beholds the divine throne 'in the visions of the night.' Faint and generic; flagged because Paul's vocabulary of revelation belongs to the Danielic apocalyptic stream that was available in the Second-Temple period.

The title 'Son of God' adjacent to the heavenly 'one like a son of man' may stand faintly behind the Jewish leaders' accusation. Contested and faint; the divine-sonship charge is the chapter's pivot.

Jesus' announcement that 'the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners' continues Mark's Danielic Son-of-Man thread, here in its suffering aspect. The title carries the Daniel 7 background even as Mark inverts the figure's exaltation into delivery to sinners, anticipating the explicit citation at v. 62.

The Son of Man coming with clouds. The cloud plus the Son-of-Man saying in v.9 may activate the Danielic glorification motif; faint here, stronger elsewhere in Matthew.

'Until the Son of Man has risen from the dead' uses the Danielic Son-of-Man title; the resurrection-secret links glory to vindication. Title-level echo.

The 'Son of Man' title carries the Danielic vindicated-one freight; the prediction couples humiliation with resurrection-vindication. Title-level echo.

The title 'Son of Man' in v.11 ultimately reaches back to Daniel's heavenly figure, though here in a saving rather than enthroned register. Faint at this point.

Waiting for the Son to come 'from heaven' to deliver at the judgment evokes the one like a son of man coming with the clouds to receive dominion at the eschatological assize. The heavenly-advent-and-judgment pattern is figurally apposite, though the explicit Son-of-Man title is absent here; faint, contested.
