A man is looking at a picture and he says:
"Brothers and sisters have I none
But that man's father is my father's son"
Who is in the picture?

The portrait is of the man's son. Many people mistakenly argue that the man is looking at a picture of himself. If he had said, "... that man is my father's son." then this solution would be correct, but he said, "... that man's father is my father's son." One way out of the confusion is to substitute the word "me" for the more cumbersome phrase "my father's son." Then the statement becomes, "that man's father is me."

It's either the man looking at the picture or it's Jesus, depending on the religous value of the picture....
