It's a double meaning. It is his crucifixion, but it's also his resurrection. And I would say his ascension, because anytime you see the phrase son of man, I'm not saying every time, but I'm saying you read the New Testament, you see the phrase son of man, particularly when Jesus refers to himself. You have to just go back and read Daniel 7 again.

We've mentioned it on so many podcasts, but it's such a key text for understanding Jesus' own understanding of His own identity. That's important. How did Jesus understand His own identity so when He uses the reference, Son of Man, He understands himself in the context of the guy, the figure, the son of man in Daniel 7.

So the picture in Daniel 7 of being lifted up, it says he was presented before the Ancient of Days. And so often we read that verse, we think that means like we're We think it's about the second coming when really what a lot of this language about the Son of Man being lifted up is about is this is the moment when he is being lifted up, presented before the ancient of days, and given dominion.

He's given authority, all authority. He's given a kingdom. And so this is a whole lot more about the vindication of Christ that is going to come. And so what he says, those who believe in him will have eternal life, which is what we're going to get to today. If we don't understand that, then we're not going to understand what eternal life means today.

And what we're going to think that it means, and I would say wrongly think that it means, is only something that happens in the future. And we reduce eternal life to only a quantity of our existence instead of a quality of our existence.

And I think Jesus is going to make the point in the gospel that eternal life is much more descriptive about the actual quality of life in Him than it is just, hey, oh, you're going to exist forever and ever and ever. It matters how we see life.

That's interesting, your translation. It reads a little different than mine. The ESV says, into him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom. He was given a kingdom. Well, I like that better, but I love it. And here's the reason why he says that. So what's the why was he given dominion? Why was he given glory in a kingdom that meaning whatever I'm going to say next?
