How do we know Jesus is King of the Jews?

Answered in 1 source

The wise men's journey and their worship declaration signify Jesus' identity as King.

The claim of Jesus as King of the Jews is established in the narrative of the wise men seeking Him. When they arrived in Jerusalem, they asked, 'Where is he that is born king of the Jews?' (Matthew 2:2). This acknowledgment by the wise men, along with their subsequent worship of Him, firmly establishes Jesus’ royal status from His birth. The gifts they presented—gold, frankincense, and myrrh—further affirm His kingship, divinity, and the suffering He would endure. Hence, the Scriptures and the actions of the wise men undergird the understanding of Jesus as the true King.
