The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.

I tried searching for "Jesus God man" (with quotation marks) and the results are mainly pages that are attempts to answer the question "Who was Jesus? God? Man? Myth?" The first result when I did this search was this page titled "How can Jesus be both God and man at the same time?" The results are certainly not in support of it being an expression of speech, let alone an idiom with the claimed definition on the newly created page.

I can see how it might occur in an exclamation as "Jesus God, man!" with the comma omitted. It would be very odd to use it as the subject or object of a verb- but usage doesn't always make sense. Chuck Entz (talk) 14:40, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Jesus is often called the "God-man" in certain contexts, so it isn't entirely implausible that that's what is intended here. But it does seem odd that it would be used in an exclamation. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 20:53, 17 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
Sounds like SoP to me, like "cool, man!" or "really groovy, man!". Equinox 22:20, 30 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
