What does the Bible say about Jesus as the Sun of Righteousness?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus is described as the Sun of Righteousness, highlighting His role as the source of spiritual light and healing.

The Bible makes a profound comparison of Jesus to the Sun, emphasizing that He is the 'Sun of Righteousness' (Malachi 4:2). Just as the sun dispels darkness and brings warmth and life, Christ illuminates the hearts and minds of believers, removing ignorance and spiritual blindness. His rays expose the character of sin, leading to repentance and faith in His atoning work. This metaphor demonstrates that while earthly sun provides physical light, Jesus provides the spiritual light necessary for eternal life and truth.
