A few centuries later, Isaiah prophesied Messianically in (Aramaic Bible in Plain English) 9:
Proverbs 30:

A good case can be made that Jesus had preincarnate interactions with some people on Earth as the Son of Man, as this mysterious name.

After Jacob wrestled with God in Genesis 32:
That might be a pre-incarnate appearance of Christ. His name was not disclosed to Jacob.27 he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Jacob.” 28 Then he said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed.” 29 Then Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” But he said, “Why is it that you ask my name?”
Centuries later in Hosea 12:
Hosea revealed that Jacob wrestled with the LORD.3 In the womb he [Jacob] took his brother by the heel, and in his manhood he strove with God. 4He strove with the angel and prevailed; he wept and sought his favor. He met God at Bethel, and there God spoke with us— 5 the LORD, the God of hosts, the LORD is his memorial name
Before Samson was born in Judges 13:
That also might be a pre-incarnate appearance of Christ. Again, his name was not disclosed.17 Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “What is your name, so that, when your words come true, we may honor you?” 18 And the angel of the LORD said to him, “Why do you ask my name, seeing it is wonderful [H6883] ?”
A few centuries later, Isaiah prophesied Messianically in (Aramaic Bible in Plain English) 9:
With the word "Wonder", Isaiah seemed to link the coming Messiah with the angel of the LORD who spoke to Manoah.6 Because the Child is born to us, and the Son is given to us, and his authority was on his shoulder, and his Name was called The Wonder [H6382] and The Counselor, God, the Mighty Man of Eternity, the Prince of Peace [and The Father of Eternity]
Proverbs 30:
Again, there was the mysterious name.4 Who has ascended to heaven and come down? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name? Surely you know!
Jesus spoke to Nicodemus in John 3:
Jesus seemed to be alluding to ascending and descending from heaven in Pro. 30:4.12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.
A good case can be made that Jesus had preincarnate interactions with some people on Earth as the Son of Man, as this mysterious name.
