Son of the Father:
As man, Jesus is the Son of David and the Son of Abraham, but He is eternally the Son of God, the-Son of the Father. As Jesus was baptized by John in the Jordan identifying Himself with the repentant Jews, the Father announced that Jesus was His beloved Son in whom He was well pleased.
Jesus was ever the Son of the Father's love (John 17:24). He had come from God the Father (John 13:3; 16:27, 28). He did not become the Son at some point in a past eternity, nor at Jordan, nor at His incarnation; He is eternally the Son which is in the bosom of the Father (John 1:18).
As the Father eternally delighted in His Son, so He would have us to delight in Him as well, and contemplate Him in every way in which He is presented to us in Scripture.
