The Old Testament scriptures tell us Messiah would be born in Bethlehem, but then Matthew tells us in Matthew that Jesus would be called a Nazarene based on what the OT prophets said. Is this what Matthew meant? They further say this is why the Rabbis objected to the inscription of I.
INRI actually never appears in the Bible. For we saw his star when it rose in the East and have come to worship him.
John Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it above the head of Jesus on the cross. Psalm Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying…. Isaiah For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this. Is your Faith Founded on Fact? Have you committed to follow Jesus? What does the Bible say about husband and wife in marriage? God instituted marriage in the Bible. It was never man's idea. After he created Adam, There are a lot of opinions about eating meat.
There are plenty of different people with their own ideas. But what does the Bible tell us? Or even more-to-the-point: What does God say about Skip to content. So what does INRI mean on the cross? Latin was the official language of the Roman Empire. These were the three dominant languages of that place and time.
Although most depictions of this cross only write the phrase in Latin, it was also represented in Greek and Aramaic on the cross.
Other sources state that it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek instead. This phrase was written on the cross in three different languages so that everyone who saw it knew what Jesus was being charged with.
People now use this to be reminded that Jesus is king, and they do not use it in a mocking way in modern times. This is seen in the Gospel of John. After Jesus was captured in Jerusalem, Pilate asked Jesus if he was indeed King of the Jews, but he did not confirm or deny the claim.
His ambivalence was taken as an admission of guilt so Pontius Pilate considered him a threat to the Roman empire. He was condemned to die by crucifixion. This is considered a Chrisogram, or a monogram that forms an abbreviation for Jesus Christ.
This is considered a Christian symbol. The letters INRI each stand for something different. Greek and Hebrew do not have a letter J, so this may be why.
The N stands for Nazarenus, which translates to Nazareth or Nazarene. The letter R stands for Rex, which means king in Latin.
Aleteia states that since the Catholic Chruch was originally based in the Roman Empire and Latin was the official language of the Roman Church, the Latin translation of Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews became the favored abbreviation over either the Greek, Hebrew, or Aramaic spellings.
