Jesus of Nazereth used this term to illustrate what he meant by sonship.
Had he wanted to let folks know that he was the child of a woman (Mary) then why didn't he say "Son of Woman?" It would have fit perfectly with the prophecy in Genesis (see Genesis 3:15). And, if he was actually making some kind of reference to that relationship (the mother/son relationship) why reinforce it so often when he'd already denounced it - saying his natural mom and family were of little importance (Matthew 12:48, 49)?
If he was talking about his birth through "natural processes", then either he was lying big time or the Gospel writers were. Starting a life from the womb of an untouched virgin is kinda unnatural today - and I'd be willing to bet it wasn't a daily occurrence 2000 years ago either. If you add on to that a conception through a "visit" from the Holy Spirit. . . well, I'm convinced we're not talking normal or natural here.
What Jesus was really trying to get across was:
"I came in to this world because of Man. "
"I have the nature securimage_show_medium.php and the characteristics of Man. "
"I breathe, eat, etc. like Man. "
"I resemble my parent(s). "
