What does the Bible say about Jesus being king?

Answered in 17 sources

The Bible declares Jesus as King in multiple passages, particularly in John 12:12-19, where He rides into Jerusalem, fulfilling prophecy.

The Bible portrays Jesus as King, a fulfillment of prophetic scriptures like Zechariah 9:9, which announces, 'Behold, thy King cometh.' This event, recorded in John 12:12-19, shows Jesus openly declaring His kingship during the Feast of Passover. The disciples and crowds initially did not fully understand the significance, but it marked the beginning of His public acknowledgment as the Messiah and King, culminating in His sacrificial death and eventual resurrection, establishing His eternal reign.
