Acts 7:56

7:56 I see . . . the Son of Man. Stephen’s vision of the Son of Man in heaven must have vividly reminded the Sanhedrin that when they asked Jesus, “Are you the Christ,” He replied, “I am, and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven” (Mark 14:61, 62). Stephen saw the same Jesus standing in heaven at God’s right hand, proving the truth of what he was saying and condemning the Sanhedrin.
