Bible Question: what are letters and meanning of the letters place above jesus when he was cruxified? |
Bible Answer: The INRI seen on many crucifixes is an abbreviation of the Latin for jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews. In Latin the I is used in place of the J in Jesus and Jews. The N is for nazareth and the R is is for Rex, Latin for King. John 19:19 Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It was written, "JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS." John 19:20 Therefore many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Latin and in Greek. John 19:21 So the chief priests of the Jews were saying to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews'; but that He said, 'I am King of the Jews.'" John 19:22 Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written." |
