How does the resurrection affirm Jesus' identity as Lord?

Answered in 1 source

The resurrection affirms Jesus' identity as Lord by validating His fulfillment of prophecy and His divine authority.

The resurrection of Jesus is a definitive declaration of His identity as Lord, as it fulfills the prophetic words spoken during His ministry. As noted in Luke 24:6, the angels remind the women at the tomb of Jesus' own predictions regarding His death and resurrection. This act of rising from the dead signifies not only His victory over death but also His rightful position at the right hand of the Father as ruler over all. In Philippians 2:9-11, it is stated that God highly exalted Him and gave Him a name which is above every name. Thus, His resurrection is essential in affirming that He is indeed Lord of all.
