ISB ~ Matthew 24 v30

the Son of man:An allusion to Dan 7:13.

• In context, Daniel beholds “a son of man” coming to God with the clouds of heaven; he is given a royal “kingdom” and “everlasting dominion” (Dan 7:14) over all nations (cf. 28:18). Daniel’s vision takes historical shape (initially) with Jesus’ Resurrection and Ascension to the Father (Mk 16:19; Acts 1:9). Jesus’ victory over his enemies will be visibly manifest with Jerusalem’s judgment and the termination of the Old Covenant.
