INRI Meaning on the Cross and in the Bible
What does the INRI stand for on a crucifix?
The letters INRI are printed on a scroll pinned above the body of Jesus on most crucifixes. The letters stand for the Latin phrase "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum."
The "I" in Latin becomes a "J" so:
Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum = Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews
This phrase and the acronym INRI on the cross comes from the passion narratives in the Bible:
Over his head they put the charge against him, which read, “This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.” (Matthew 27:37)
"Pilate also had an inscription written and put on the cross. It read, 'Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.' Many of the Jews read this inscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek. Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, 'Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'This man said, I am King of the Jews.'' Pilate answered, 'What I have written I have written.'" (John 19:19-22)
The meaning of this symbol for us today is that Jesus truly is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. He is our king. So, what was written to mock Jesus is now written on the cross to attest to the truth that Jesus Christ is king!

With technology and hypertension ruling our lives, spirituality is indeed important!
A mother, a warrior, a woman. God bless all who insist on peace. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled

Sir Alexandre, are you sure that the messiah and apostle like Saul really spoke Aramaic and not Hebrew during their time? If you cannot give me a single bible verse that they indeed spoke ARAMAIC to support your claimed, then i could say it is only a hearsay and hallucinating. Remember that the Jewish Messiah was not an Aramean, that is from the tribe of Aram, younger brother of Arphaxad (Gen.10:22) but a "true Hebrew/Heberite" from the tribe of Heber (Gen.10:24) whose father was Salah and son of Arphaxad. In Acts 26:14,15, the Messiah whose true name was YaHVaHshua and apostle Saul spoke only the tongue of HEBREW, and nothing more like Aramaic, Greek, Latin, English, Spanish... Show me also your biblical proof, but if you cant, yours is like a law without "teeth!"

INRI, the letters placed over the head of Jesus by order of Pilate though most often rendered as "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews" can also be rendered as "Ignis Naturalis Regeneratis Ignis" which means, "Light Made Flesh Reborn as Light." We are all light made flesh about to be reborn as light.
Well, that is the actual name of Jesus in Latin because in Hebrew his name is Yashua ,even though the Jews put that inscription as a joke that was a true statement!!! Yet, the Lord sent Jesus to this planet to save us, He proudly made it and conquer the cross and rose from the death to let the people know that He was actually what He said He was when He talked to the people, yet the people that He was sent to save from the evil didn’t wanted to followed Him, but for those who followed Him He gave them be called sons and daughters of the God!!!
I often wonder, and hope of course, that Pilate (though in a bad position regarding his - Caesars - tolerance) may have believed. His wife's dream, he wanted to let The Christ free... But in the end, He HAD to die, and in the end it was HIM who chose how and when (He sacrificed HIMSELF, fulfilling prophecy completely Ps22). Was Pilates role a 'necessary' act through the hands of one who was reluctant. I may be wrong, we could suggest the same for Judas, who was certainly cursed. But I've always held sympathy for Pilate, among the pressures of Roman duty and, significantly, his Jewish governance and the balance of peace and control.

It is not my intention to get caught up in some of the telling comments that I see, but I will say a few things. I hope you will take the time to read it. GOD did validate Jesus as "my beloved son, in who I am well pleased." (Mathew 3:17) However, if Jesus had surrendered to the temptations of Satan (Matthew 4), and if the cross, the grave, resurrection and ascention did not take place, the plan of salvation (restoration of relationship with GOD) would have been curtailed and human life would be meaningless,hopeless and eternally doomed - that was not what GOD wanted - and still does not - but what Satan wanted - and still wants - since he knew/knows he could not (cannot) attain true GOD-status. Judas was not sacrificed. When the reality of what he had done hit home, he sought to redress himsrlf and when this failed he committed suicide by hanging hanging himself (Matthew 27:1-5). Jesus was crucified, and even the centurion (ROMAN soldier) at the foot of the cross acknowledged Him as such (Matthew 27:54) We human beings brought the curse of physical, emotional and all other kinds of suffering and death on ourselves when we decided to believe "another gospel" - Satan's (deceptive and seductive). We are still doing it today - still falling for his tricks - and still reaping it's deadly rewards. Christianity is not an opium to me .... this is life. I found my greatest freedom in surrendering to Jesus (YHWY) (Yeshua) many years ago as a teenager, and I am still experiencing that freedom in my mid-60s. You have to walk it, to understand the reality and the vitality of it. The Bible and ALMIGHTY GOD are still relevant and proveaable today. The validity and veracity of the Holy and appointed word of GOD is being played out every day. This knowledge is a life-saver to those who would open their eyes and see, and read His word and learn. One day many will regret their disdaine for and mockery of GOD, as every stubborn knee and every stiff upper lip .... every human being .... WILL bend the knee before, and verbally admit, that GOD IS . It is far better to acknowledge these facts now when you can do it with joy, than when the time comes when you have nowhere to run or no one else to blame ... out of options, out of excuses. So much more could be said, but .....

I don't agree
The suffix -orum is plural genitive, and the suffix means "of the (fill in the blank)s". Iudeaorum translates literally as "of the Judeans". You don't have to just stick it in the space between King Jews.
Do this acronym in hebrew. And you will get yod hey wah hey. This is because God said to Moses this is my name forever and he gave him a acronym. This acronym would not be seen and fully understood until put on the cross.
The bible tells us Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews ( John 19:19 ) roman catholic made INRI for lesus nazarerus rex ludaedrum.. Is that the real meaning or there is a special behind it ?

Pilot actually wrote it in this acrostic form, the first letter in each word. He also wrote it in greek and Hebrew. The Jews wanted it changed because the Hebrew for Jesus king of the Jews is , yeshua harazaret vermelek hajudim (YHVH) the acrostic for Jehovah. They wanted to ad to the acrostic to change it. The pagan ruler involved in the illegal trial of Jesus had put the name of God above him. No one else would have spotted this, but the Jews did.

What 😮 Is this legit? The Hebrew acrostic for INRI is YHVH!? As with many things related, that is absolutely amazing.
Jesus punches through the noise of our world. His presence on Earth as a Lamb led to slaugher is, to human minds, completely irrational. Great vid but I would offer this: Pilate wasn't mocking Jesus : "Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered, What I have written I have written” (John 19:19-22)

The inscription on the cross writen, “Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews ".Why not Jesus the nazarene , the son of god? jesus son of god ? Something like that?

If he’s the son of God, why didn't God defend his son, and if he’s God, why did God "Almighty" defend himself. And how do you expect people to worship a God who let his son be humiliated or himself to be humiliated?

You may not be a believer, And I am not telling you to believe anything either. But to clear your doubts, You must read the Bible. You can start from the Book of Kings and read until the Gospels. But simply saying, God wanted to set an example to the mankind how to Love and live peacefully. He tried to do it with Good Kings and Prophets but didn't work. So He sent came by himself as a human and as the Son of God. And there is a Christian saying "There is no greater way to show love than to sacrifice yourself for your friend". Likewise, Jesus sacrifized himself in the cross. Hope you got it❤✌.

@@markrobin9348 @Mark Robinson Thank you for the reply. But saying God tried and it didn't work, is simply saying God does not know what he is doing. He manages the world which he has created through "trial and error", as if saying God doesn't understand the mentality of His own creation. Like He created them but they went out of control. Now a second point. God sent his son, or came himself to set an example, then what about the people before God sent his son or came himself? What’s to become of them? And during the time God was on the cross, who managed the world? Now if a Christan person thinks about it, God Has come/sent his son to redeem me, so why would he still judge me? And if i know that a priest has the power to save my soul, why would i still worry about reward and punishment? I have so many questions. I do thank you for taking the time to reply. Very much appreciated. ♥️

@@user-cx4zb3jt8w Well, I think It's like a relationship with parents and Children. Even though Parents brought those children to this world, Even though they took care, provided and did everything, Sometimes the Kids go HAYWIRE. And It is a human nature. Inevitable.Likewise It happened with God and His creation. And the persons he selected to guide the people were also normal men and women. So the people didn't believe them or their faith faded away overtime. And we believe that, Just because someone is Christian or not, Doesn't mean they will sure go to heaven or hell. It's all based on your sins and good deeds. A priest has the power to give you confession. Which means even if you are a sinner but you suffer thinking about it, you really want to change and become a good person, You can do a good confession and can even become a Saint. But the scars of the sins will be there. Like a stamp. For which you will have to pay before going to the eternal life. So All the Priests and Pope, Saints and Prophets guide us to do as little sin as we can so we won't have to suffer later. Personally, I have a little bit of different understanding. But this is all I can tell with the theory. Hope it helped you❤
