What does the Bible say about the greatness of Jesus?
Answered in 6 sources
The Bible presents Jesus as the 'Son of the Highest' who is infinitely great and has an everlasting kingdom (Luke 1:32-33).
In the Gospel of Luke, the greatness of Jesus is underscored by the angel's proclamation that He shall be great and reign over the house of Jacob forever. This concept of greatness highlights His divine nature and authority. The angel's announcement to Mary declares not only His title as the Son of the Highest but also the promise of an eternal kingdom that will never end. Such affirmations reveal that Jesus embodies the fulfillment of all prophetic expectations and is sovereign over all creation, making Him incomparably great.
