A peculiar appellation of Christ, expressing his eternal relationship to the Father, Psalm 2:7 Daniel 3:25 Luke 1:35 John 1:18,34 . Christ always claimed to be the only-begotten Son of the Father, Matthew 4:3 8:29 27:54 John 3:16-18; and the Jews rightly understood him as thus making himself equal with God, John 5:18 10:30-33 .
