• Daniel 7:13-14, "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven..."

• Jeremiah 49:18, "As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbor cities, saith the LORD, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell in it."

• Isaiah 51:12, "I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;"
