Re: Ehrman v Craig for Denis

13 "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a
son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient
of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory
and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language
worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not
pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. Daniel
7:13-14


The verse does not say "worship," it says "serve." "Worship" is a
mistranslation.

The "Son of Man" in this Daniel passage is not God. The Jewish Messiah
is not God. He is a human king. An heir to the throne of David who will
usher in a "Messianic Age" which includes the restoration of the
kingdom of Israel and the Temple among other things (none of which
involve dying, being resurrected or redeeming anyone's sins). The OT
Messiah is just a human king. The fact that Daniel called him a "son of
Adam" (i.e a "human being") is a de facto statement that the Messiah is
not God.

there is a current discussion going on about jesus claiming to be a man
god.
