Commentary on Acts 7:56
Stephen's vision - 'I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God' - echoed Jesus' claim before this same body (Mark 14:62). The 'Son of man' title connected to Daniel 7:13-14's heavenly figure. Jesus standing (not seated) suggests He rose to receive His martyred witness.
