Answered in 1 source
Jesus' resurrection validates His identity and mission, confirming that He is the Son of God and fulfilling the promises of Scripture.
John 12 and Romans 1 provide insight into the necessity of Jesus' resurrection for His glorification. After experiencing humiliation on the cross, His resurrection served as a powerful declaration of His identity as the Son of God with authority. Romans 1:4 states that Jesus was declared to be the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead. This resurrection not only affirmed His claims but also validated His sacrifice, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies and establishing His reign in the New Covenant.
