Anthropos and Son of Man: a Study in the Religious Syncretism of the Helenistic Orient (Columbia University Oriental Studies)
Carl H. Kraeling
Kraeling's treatment of the ancient figure known as the "Anthropos" remains a challenging read even after several decades. Surveying Hellenistic, Gnostic, Manichean, Mandean, and Jewish sources, the author suggests a ubiquitous character known as the Anthropos was used in the New Testament to characterize aspects of Christ.
