V16, why would Jesus charge the people not to make him known? If they called Jesus the Son of God then they would be taken by the same Jews that sought to kill Jesus. That is why Jesus allowed people to call him Son of man which was an acceptable title not punishable by death. Son of man was a term for a savior of religious believers. 3 religions with belief in a savior but 1 belief in Son of God.
