What is man according to Bible?

Answer 1

Genesis 1:27, "And God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." If your asking what are Humans, then the simple answer is Human. We aren't monkeys, or descendants of monkeys or anything else according to a strict reading of The Bible. If your asking something else, I'm not sure. You have to be more specific.

Along with Genesis 1:27, Genesis 2:7 is also discussed as concerns what the Bible believes a man to be. "Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being." This is usually used to set up the Judeo-Christian idea that a man has two essences or components. There is a bestial, earthy component which is symbolized by the dust. This bestial, earthly component is the source of our earthly desires and our general failings. The breath of God is representative of a divine, ethereal component. This divine component is responsible for our aspirations and greater sensitivity to wrongdoing than an animal. It is the struggle between these two natures which, according to the Jewish and Christian readings, is responsible for a human's behavior.

Answer:

"...someone has testified: 'What is man that You are mindful of him, the son of man that You care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels; youcrowned him with glory and honor and put everything under his feet.' In putting everything under him, God left nothing that is not subject to him. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to him.

"But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with Glory and Honor because He suffered death, so that by the Grace of God He might taste death for everyone. In bringing MANY SONS to Glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the Author of their Salvation perfect through suffering." (Heb.2:6-10 NIV)

God made man to one day be born into His Divine Family as His Children.

"Both the One who MAKES MEN HOLY and those who are MADE HOLY are OF THE SAME FAMILY. So JESUS IS NOT ASHAMED TO CALL THEM BROTHERS." (verse 11)

Right now... man is "a little lower than the angels." But, he SHALL inherit the Glory and Honor of Jesus Christ, the Author of his Salvation... and join the Family of God, to become the CHILDREN OF GOD.

Answer 2

All of us are human (flesh & blood, and spirit).

Only Father God, the Holy Spirit, angels and demons are not human.
