Mt. 16 says the coming of the son of man includes the son of man coming in the glory of his father with his angels at which point will repay each man for his deeds. So this can't be about Jesus simply "coming on a ministry mission".

The "coming of the son of man" event isn't Jesus' physical return and physical resurrection of all souls.

Are you familiar with the "coming of the son of man" imagery in Daniel 7? It gives this scene where one like the son of man was taken on the clouds of heaven to the "Ancient of Days" to receive a kingdom. This son of man figure symbolizes oppressed Israel and his coming on the clouds represents...

Explained what?

What makes you think Mt. 16 isn't also the coming of the son of man event spoken of in Mt. 10? In Mt. 10:22 Jesus tells them "the one who has endured to the end will be saved." Mt. 23:34 says that he's sending them out and they will be killed and crucified and scourged in the synagogues and...

It's in more than one place where Jesus tells them they'd live to see the "coming of the son of man" event.

The "coming of the son of man" event is not the physical return of Christ at the resurrection. It can't be because when Jesus talks about this "coming of the son of man event" he speaks to them as if they would live to see it.

I learned it in scripture where it's written that Jesus told them that some of them would live to see the coming of the son of man. Matthew 10:23 Matthew 16:28

Jesus speaks of the "coming of the son of man" event in the same context of repaying each man for their deeds.

Yes. That still doesn't answer the question. Jesus said some would live to see the coming of the son of man. And in the passage you quote (along with Mt. 10) we see Jesus' instructions to them laced with urgency. They shouldn't carry unnecessary items when traveling from town to town, they...

Some might die within six days? That doesn't sound right. And how was the transfiguration him coming "in the glory of his father with angels"? He also connects the coming of the son of man with repaying each man according to his deeds.

But how is that coming in glory of his father with angels and repaying each man according to his deeds? (Mt. 16:27)

How is that coming in glory of his father with angels and repaying each man according to his deeds? (Mt. 16:27)

I don't think there's a contradiction. I believe Jesus when he said they'd see it in their lifetime.

There is no contradiction. Jesus said they'd see the coming of the son of man and so I'm sure they did.

It doesn't sound right at all. When someone says they think they'll live to see this or that, they're not talking about a week later. I noticed you ignored, "And how was the transfiguration him coming "in the glory of his father with angels"? He also connects the coming of the son of man with...

I think so.

But how can the "rejoining the disciples" be seen as "seeing the kingdom of God come with power" (Mark 9:1; cf. Mt. 16:28)? Jesus puts the "coming of the son of man" event at the time the son of man "comes in the glory of his father with his angels" (Mt. 16:27) and it’s this event some of his...
