What does it mean that Christ is the 'King of Righteousness' and 'King of Peace'?

Answered in 1 source

Christ being the 'King of Righteousness' means He establishes God's righteousness, leading to peace for His people.

Christ's title as 'King of Righteousness' reflects His role in fulfilling God's law and providing righteousness on behalf of His people (Hebrews 7:2). This righteousness is essential for reconciliation with God and is the foundation of true peace. Consequently, as the 'King of Peace,' Christ makes peace through His sacrificial death, which satisfies divine justice and brings believers into harmony with God (Colossians 1:20). Through His righteousness, He not only justifies us before God but also imparts peace to our hearts, assuring us of our standing in grace.
