When Jesus said that the son of man came eating and drinking He defines him as the servant of God because He knew that scripture said the servant of God eats and drinks. Let's not forget that He said the son of man would be revealed. Well I am revealing Him. That is why Jesus spoke in the third person because there are more servants coming.
Can anyone prove otherwise?
Can you be him? I am.
"The son of man came eating and drinking"
"My servants shall eat but you shall go hungry. My servants shall drink but you shall go thirsty."
"Didn't your Father eat and drink? He did what is right and just and it went well with him because he judged the weak and the poor it went well with him. Isn't this knowledge me, says the Lord"

"The son of man came eating and drinking"
"My servants shall eat but you shall go hungry. My servants shall drink but you shall go thirsty."
Therefore thus says the Lord God: My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame;
Therefore thus says the Lord God: My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame;
QUESTION:
Do you really believe that all those "Thus says the Lord God" sayings were really spoken by God?
Once Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, and he answered, "The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed;
nor will they say, "Look, here it is!' or "There it is!' For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you."
Then he said to the disciples, "The days are coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
They will say to you, "Look there!' or "Look here!' Do not go, do not set off in pursuit.
For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be in his day.
But first he must endure much suffering and be rejected by this generation.
Just as it was in the days of Noah, so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man.
They were eating and drinking, and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed all of them.
Likewise, just as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building,
but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from heaven and destroyed all of them
—it will be like that on the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
Therefore thus says the Lord God: My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame;
Therefore thus says the Lord God: My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame;
13.Therefore, so said the Lord God, "Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall thirst; behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed.
Rashi's Commentary:
My servants: The righteous [of Israel].
but you: who rebel against Me.
