“He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.”
Daniel 3:25, KJV

“I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.”
Daniel 7:13-14, KJV

The Daniel verses are NOT the only ones that mention Jesus being the Son of God in the Old Testament. In fact, the entirety of Psalm Two is talking all about God the Father, and His beloved Son Jesus Christ. For those of my readers who may not be aware of it, according to Christian beliefs, in the Old Testament, when LORD is written in all uppercase letters, it’s really a substitute for “YHWH” — which is the always unspoken Hebrew Tetragrammaton — and it always signifies God the Father. In other instances, the word “Lord” — with only the uppercase “L” — is translated from the Hebrew word “Adonai”, and can indicate Jesus Christ. In Psalm Two, verse two, the phrase “his anointed” is referring to Jesus Christ:

“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.”
Psalms 2:1-12, KJV
