Glorified
Now the Son of Man is glorified, & God is glorified in Him.
John 13:31
Jesus does reveal Himself to be divine in the New Testament, probably most clearly in the Transfiguration & His own Resurrection, but sometimes in a much more coded way. The title He often uses of Himself, "Son of Man" is a reference to Daniel 7:13-14:
One like a son of man came on the clouds of heaven. He faced the One of Great Age & was brought into his presence. Dominion, honor & kingship were given him, & all the peoples & nations of every language served him. His dominion is eternal & shall never pass away; his kingdom will never be destroyed..
So when Muslims often try to rebut claims of Christ's divinity they reveal their own lack of understanding of what He is actually saying.
