Son of Man

“I saw in the night visions…one like the Son of man…”(Dan 7: 13-14)
Jesus was the Messiah that Daniel saw in his night visions. The Son of Man corroborates the same in the verse ‘The son of man came eating and drinking…’(Mt 11:19) Jesus during his earthly ministry said, ‘I appoint unto you a kingdom…’ (Lk 22:9) Was not his authority attested even in the prophesy of Daniel that ‘…his kingdom was one that which shall not be destroyed.’ Dan 7:14 He came unto his own, and his own received him not’(Jn 1:11). As he began his ministry he commanded the disciples to ‘go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’(Mt10:6) Jesus was well aware of the rejection and his warning ‘You shall not have gone over the cities of Israel till the son of man be come’ therefore would mean another advent than his first.(Mt.10: 23)
Coming back to the vs 2 of Malachi ‘ Who may abide the day of his coming?... he shall purify the sons of Levi … that they may offer unto the Lord, an offering in righteousness.’ Does it not refer to the Great Tribulation and the redemption of the sons of Levi or nation of Israel?
