Commentary on Matthew 16:13
Jesus' question 'Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?' introduces the crucial identity question. The phrase 'Son of man' (from Daniel 7:13) carries messianic implications while emphasizing His humanity. This question forces confrontation with Christ's identity—the central issue of Christianity. Reformed Christology emphasizes that right understanding of Christ's person is foundational to salvation. Various opinions about Jesus (as there are today) all fall short unless one recognizes His deity and messianic office.
