the term son of God in these other instances referred to the fact that God called and originated their relationship to Himself and like a son they obeyed. However, the Bible clearly teaches that Jesus was THE Son of God in a very special sense. First He always was because His original name was THE WORD - and the Word was WITH God and the Word WAS God. Then when the Word was born into the human family it was done through a virgin so that God blood, (not born under the Law nor contaminated by the inherited sin condition), could be housed in a human vessel to fulfill the plan of salvation. No other human in any relationship by any name had this special position IN God and AS God.

God his telling David that Solomon will be took care of as if my own. Again, Solomon, being true to God. he will be under Gods care. sort of like adoption. As for Jesus, being the son of God, its
Because no man can claim that Jesus was of their seed. And the knowledge that Jesus had no one could claim . he learned it from any teaching, because no one could teach what Jesus knew. And no one could claim he learned it from anyone else.
To verify, that the gifts he had, could of only come from God. No one could prove Jesus wasn't the son of God. because no man could say this is my son. because then Mary would have to verify it, And if it was proven that the person wasn't Jesus father, they would be discredited, or stoned to death.
