Hello f4t.
The phrase that Jesus uses "Son of Man" has always intrigued me and especially more so since it is used concerning His "parousia" in the Olivet Discourse and Revelation.
A lot of times I look up phrases in a concordance to find out where they are used in the Bible [use colons: "phrase"]
Strong's Concordance with Hebrew and Greek Lexicon
"Son of Man"(NKJV)
"son of man" occurs 194 times in
190 verses in the NKJV.
In John 12, the Jews actually had to ask Jesus who or what is the "Son of Man".
Jhn 12:34
The people answered Him, “We have heard from the law that the Christ remains to the age;
and how
can You say, ‘The
Son of Man must be lifted up'?
Who is this Son of Man?”
Here are the verses from Matt, Mar and Luk that use that term concerning the coming parousia in the 70ad Jerusalem/Temple Discourse:
Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke's Temple/Jerusalem Discourses harmonized
The word "parousia" occurs in only 4 verses of the Gospels, all in Matt 24:
MATTHEW
Matthew 24:
3
He is yet sitting on the mount of the Olives, the disciples toward-came to Him according to own, saying,
`Tell us, when? shall these be and what? the sign of
Thy ParousiaV <3952>,
and of the together-finish/consummation/sun-teleiaV <4930> of the Age?'
27
for even as the lightning/star-flashes<796> comes-out from risings and is appearing till of west, thus shall be
the parousia<3952> of the
Son of the Man;
37
For as even the days of the Noah thus shall be
the parousia<3952> of the Son of the Man;
39
and not they know till came the flood and took/lifted all! away. Thus shall be also
the parousia<3952> of the Son of the Man.
Mat 25:31
“When the
Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy[fn] angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.

It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the
Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

“For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the
Son of Man will be ashamed
when He comes in His own glory, and
in His Father's, and of the holy angels.

“
For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the
Son of Man will be to
this generation.
[Matthew 12:41

The Ninevites shall be resurrecting/standing-up/<450> in the judging with
this generation and shall be condemning her/it
that they repent/reform into
the proclamation of Jonah and Lo! more of Jonah here.
]

part under heaven shines to the other
part under heaven, so also the
Son of Man will be in His day.

Son of Man:
[
