How did Mark present Jesus as the son of God?
Elaine Pagels points out that the term "son of God" (or prior to minuscule writing, "SON OF GOD") was not capitalised until after 1500 CE. While the use of an initial capital would make the title very specific, the absence of capitalisation does not necessarily do so. To the Jews, the term "son of God" simply meant their king. Psalm 2 demonstrates this, especially in verse 7: "I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee." This Near Eastern practice was soon adopted by the Romans, with the emperors styling themselves "son of god", using the word divus for god, rather than deus, thus more modestly referring to their own biological fathers. So, Mark's use of the term need not have been as dramatic as it became in later Christian usage.Mark presented Jesus as the son of God at his baptism, when Jesus heard a voice from heaven: "And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." This was part of an evolutionary pattern: Paul presented Jesus as son of God at his resurrection, Mark at his baptism, Matthew and Luke at his conception and John as a pre-existing Son.

How did Mark use Son of Man in his gospel?
A:The phrase, Son of Man, was first used in Mark's Gospel, where Jesus referred to himself as the Son of Man and Peter called him the Christ ('anointed one'). Son of Man was already a term sometimes used in the Hebrew scriptures for prophets and other persons of note, as a flowery way of saying 'man'. Among the Jews, to have called Jesus the Son of God might have been considered blasphemous when Mark was written, but the demons and the centurion, as outsiders, could call do so because their statements would not bring the Christian community into disrepute. Even when the centurion at the crucifixion said, "Truly this man was the Son of God," there is a hint of sarcasm that might have been intended to forestall criticism for the use of this term by a human in Mark's Gospel. Perhaps fifteen years later, Matthew's Gospel could use the term Son of God quite freely and sarcasm was no longer necessary in the centurion's statement when Jesus died.

What does son of God mean?
Another Answer from our community:Son of god means the son that god gave to the earth it could also be answered as gods child given the name son of god Another Answer:For humans, a son or daughter must be begotten of a 'father' and born of a woman - mother. Jesus states several times that He is His Father's Son - and not someone else's. Before Jesus entered into this new Father-Son relationship, He existed as a member of the eternal God Family - called the Word:John 1:14 (New King James Version -NKJV) The Word Becomes Flesh:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.Another Answer from our community:You have actually answered your own question. Son of God literally means just that. Christ was literally the first born son of God. Born as a spirit child and sent to earth to gain a body. He also has a heavenly mother but the scriptures are silent regarding her.Another answer from our community:In Scripture the name son of God is bestowed on a variety of persons for a variety of reasons. First, it is applied to angels - Job 2:1 - they may be so called because they are the creatures of God's hands or because, as spiritual beings, they resemble God, who is a spirit. Secondly, in Luke 3:38 the title is applied to the first man. Thirdly, it is applied to the Hebrew nation, as when, in Exodus 4:22, God says to Pharaoh, "Israel is my son, my first-born," the reason being that Israel was the object of God's special love and gracious choice. Fourthly, it is applied to the kings of Israel, as representatives of the chosen nation - 2 Samuel 7:14, Psalm 2:7. Finally, in the New Testament, the title is applied to all believers, as in John 1:12, (KJV).The Son (capital S) of God is used in reference to Jesus in the New Testament. In Luke 1:35, the following reason for this use is given, "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."Son of God because Mary was conceived by the Holy Spirit not by man. Mary's Son would be God manifest in the flesh.
