INRI Meaning on the Cross and in the Bible

- What does the INRI stand for on a crucifix?
The letters INRI are printed on a scroll pinned above the body of Jesus on most crucifixes. The letters stand for the Latin phrase "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum."
The "I" in Latin becomes a "J" so:
Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum = Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews
This phrase and the acronym INRI on the cross comes from the passion narratives in the Bible:
Over his head they put the charge against him, which read, “This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.” (Matthew 27:37)
"Pilate also had an inscription written and put on the cross. It read, 'Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.' Many of the Jews read this inscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek. Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, 'Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'This man said, I am King of the Jews.'' Pilate answered, 'What I have written I have written.'" (John 19:19-22)
The meaning of this symbol for us today is that Jesus truly is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. He is our king. So, what was written to mock Jesus is now written on the cross to attest to the truth that Jesus Christ is king!

I am thankfull people are still searching for God in their lives

With technology and hypertension ruling our lives, spirituality is indeed important!
Yes,it is instilled in the spirit of every human being from the very beginning where even every atheist craves to know the compelling answer of truth for them to believe that there is a supreme being they can look up to and glorify and that is God.
Ironically, one of the most important and true statements ever, and STILL TRUE. Godspeed pilgrims.
Be blessed, I am Christian but I have never understood what this word means till today 2th/10/2019 thank you
God bless you and your family, Amen. Stay safe.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled
2023 - Praise the Lord , King Jesus Christ 👑
God bless you in Jesus' Name... Amen!
I am thankfull to you Sir.
May Almighty God and Jesus bless you.❤
Thank you, not many religious teachers talk about it nowdays . The truth hurts their sensitive feelings and emotions.
Yeshua, Jesus Christ, my Lord, my God, and my King. There can be no other. Godspeed pilgrims.
Thank you for explaining this to me I never knew and I have worked in ministry and served in the army chaplaincy and this was not thought to us. Bless you I'm learning a lot know as a born again again christian, bless you

Always wanted to know what INRI stood for. Thank you very much.
This was written on my christian friends' cross and i was curious lol. Thanks
Happy Resurrection day to you, you are wonderful teacher God bless you 😊
It was irony because even though the rabbis opposed it Pilot made sure that it was written so if was like Jesus had the last word to state that He was indeed The Messiah and they blindly ignored Him . And when He returns He will show them the piercing on His hands 🙌
Man of God can explain three languages
I never understood why people would go and look for these videos just to hate on them
my teacher sent me this. i didn't look for it
For the same reason people go after other people they don´t like to beat them up or extort them or whatever.
We had no king.
@@glennworthman1430 what's that supposed to mean, exactly?
@@BertMCOC It means non-Jews don't get to decide who our king is.
We have a prayer .Behold the Cross of Christ all the evil enemies run away The lion of the clan of Judha the descendant of David is victorious .Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Thank you! Blessings!
I know brother I'm Christian I love u jesus amin he is living god
(John 19:20) ”... the sign was written in Aramaic (not in Hebrew), Latin and Greek.” NB: Aramaic was lingua franca at the time in Judea.
No, it was Hebrew
Ignus Natura Renovatur Integra
@@mechypaezpolo481 i was waiting for someone to comment this phrase :-) though correct me if im wrong, is it Igne?
Sir Alexandre, are you sure that the messiah and apostle like Saul really spoke Aramaic and not Hebrew during their time? If you cannot give me a single bible verse that they indeed spoke ARAMAIC to support your claimed, then i could say it is only a hearsay and hallucinating. Remember that the Jewish Messiah was not an Aramean, that is from the tribe of Aram, younger brother of Arphaxad (Gen.10:22) but a "true Hebrew/Heberite" from the tribe of Heber (Gen.10:24) whose father was Salah and son of Arphaxad. In Acts 26:14,15, the Messiah whose true name was YaHVaHshua and apostle Saul spoke only the tongue of HEBREW, and nothing more like Aramaic, Greek, Latin, English, Spanish... Show me also your biblical proof, but if you cant, yours is like a law without "teeth!"
@@danilomillendez4343 Sir, it was aramaic. That was lingua franca, simply, the language of the educated people of those days in Judea.
I.N.I.R - Igne Natura Renovatur Integra, can we explore the meaning behind this phrase please?
Good explanation 👍🙏🏻
Love that you seek the pure love of Christ Crucifix Gethsemine
Thank you. God bless. 🙏🏻❤
Anyone know why some old painting the 'N' is mirror image?
Thank you 🙏
Thank you
I never knew the meaning of (INRI) until today 12/13/2021!!!
Thanks I always wondered about that
Did anyone ever think it was confusion and the letters are for “Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochi “ i n r i -- the way it was really done back then?
I would like to know what this phrase was in Hebrew language.
Amen🙏❤️
INRI, the letters placed over the head of Jesus by order of Pilate though most often rendered as "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews" can also be rendered as "Ignis Naturalis Regeneratis Ignis" which means, "Light Made Flesh Reborn as Light." We are all light made flesh about to be reborn as light.
You could make it say whatever you want but Pilate's intention is what matters since he had it put up.
@@Newshoundfortruth The Father uses believers and non-believers. There is always a deeper meaning for those whose eyes, ears and hearts are open. We are light made flesh about to be reborn as light. God bless.
Thank you.
some says INARI,most famous Shrine in Japan, was "INRI" brought by ancient Jewish.
Its of Jesus
It is not my intention to get caught up in some of the telling comments that I see, but I will say a few things. I hope you will take the time to read it.
GOD did validate Jesus as "my beloved son, in who I am well pleased." (Mathew 3:17) However, if Jesus had surrendered to the temptations of Satan (Matthew 4), and if the cross, the grave, resurrection and ascention did not take place, the plan of salvation (restoration of relationship with GOD) would have been curtailed and human life would be meaningless,hopeless and eternally doomed - that was not what GOD wanted - and still does not - but what Satan wanted - and still wants - since he knew/knows he could not (cannot) attain true GOD-status.
Judas was not sacrificed. When the reality of what he had done hit home, he sought to redress himsrlf and when this failed he committed suicide by hanging hanging himself (Matthew 27:1-5). Jesus was crucified, and even the centurion (ROMAN soldier) at the foot of the cross acknowledged Him as such (Matthew 27:54)
We human beings brought the curse of physical, emotional and all other kinds of suffering and death on ourselves when we decided to believe "another gospel" - Satan's (deceptive and seductive). We are still doing it today - still falling for his tricks - and still reaping it's deadly rewards.
Christianity is not an opium to me .... this is life. I found my greatest freedom in surrendering to Jesus (YHWY) (Yeshua) many years ago as a teenager, and I am still experiencing that freedom in my mid-60s. You have to walk it, to understand the reality and the vitality of it. The Bible and ALMIGHTY GOD are still relevant and proveaable today. The validity and veracity of the Holy and appointed word of GOD is being played out every day. This knowledge is a life-saver to those who would open their eyes and see, and read His word and learn. One day many will regret their disdaine for and mockery of GOD, as every stubborn knee and every stiff upper lip .... every human being .... WILL bend the knee before, and verbally admit, that GOD IS . It is far better to acknowledge these facts now when you can do it with joy, than when the time comes when you have nowhere to run or no one else to blame ... out of options, out of excuses.
So much more could be said, but .....
👀 💯
Thanks didn't know but have seen it many times IRNI....
Thank you!
Thank you 😢
Could it possibly mean EYE IN OUR EYE (INRI) meaning "cameras on our eyes?" This may be above the heads of many so I expect a pessimistic response so bring it.
Thank you Sir
I often wonder, and hope of course, that Pilate (though in a bad position regarding his - Caesars - tolerance) may have believed. His wife's dream, he wanted to let The Christ free... But in the end, He HAD to die, and in the end it was HIM who chose how and when (He sacrificed HIMSELF, fulfilling prophecy completely Ps22). Was Pilates role a 'necessary' act through the hands of one who was reluctant. I may be wrong, we could suggest the same for Judas, who was certainly cursed. But I've always held sympathy for Pilate, among the pressures of Roman duty and, significantly, his Jewish governance and the balance of peace and control.
Praise the lord thanks you brother
You are explaining only in Latin. How explaining the inscriprion in Hebrew since it was also mentioned by John in verse 19:19-21? Remember that he was a truly a jew just like the savior (Heb.7:14).
Cool. Good to know. Thanks guys! I’m excited to have my first Crucifix.
Thank you, this is help us to understand
how do you get i means this and i means that?
You must study languages .
@@Newshoundfortruth i need to study because these comments are completely useless!
why is there INBI on my cross instead of INRI?
I got inspiration
Under the ground we found a cross written on it INRI, tritium and millenium Is there any explanation and thanks?
Jesus Messiah ❤️
I for one see loving eyes. Love 💕 you, because I do.
PRAISE THE LORD
Why is the first I different from the last I. So it's up to somebody's perception I guess. A human beings perception
How it can I become J?
Literally what does I N R I means ?
There is a lot of truth in what you say, may the lord guide all of us into seeking the truth, which is jesus christ of nazareth, the king.
But in luke, and in several places it does strongly suggest that pilot did in fact believe that jesus was who he claimed to be. And rejected, the jewish leader's statements and the pharisee's statements, saying that he was just merely claiming to be the king of the jews and accepted the fact that the jews were crucifying their own king.
He made this clear that it was their own judgment, not his own.
When are they going to take Jesus off the Cross,he has suffered there over 2000 years?I enjoy your teaching..
Hail King of the Jews.
I learn something new everyday :)
"I learn something new everyday."
I forget something new every day. Soon I will forget who I am, where I am, what I am but never that I am!
The suffix -orum is plural genitive, and the suffix means "of the (fill in the blank)s". Iudeaorum translates literally as "of the Judeans". You don't have to just stick it in the space between King Jews.
The bible tells us
Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews ( John 19:19 ) roman catholic made INRI for lesus nazarerus rex ludaedrum..
Is that the real meaning or there is a special behind it ?
Igne Natura Renovatur Integra also.
Nature restores all through fire.
remember when jesus say in the parables, he speaks for those who have ears to hear and eyes to see.
Pilot actually wrote it in this acrostic form, the first letter in each word. He also wrote it in greek and Hebrew. The Jews wanted it changed because the Hebrew for Jesus king of the Jews is , yeshua harazaret vermelek hajudim (YHVH) the acrostic for Jehovah. They wanted to ad to the acrostic to change it. The pagan ruler involved in the illegal trial of Jesus had put the name of God above him. No one else would have spotted this, but the Jews did.
What 😮 Is this legit? The Hebrew acrostic for INRI is YHVH!? As with many things related, that is absolutely amazing.
ohhh I get it! thanks sir!
Jesus is no longer on the Cross and neither is He a religion but a personal relationship.
If he’s the son of God, why didn't God defend his son, and if he’s God, why did God "Almighty" defend himself. And how do you expect people to worship a God who let his son be humiliated or himself to be humiliated?
You may not be a believer, And I am not telling you to believe anything either. But to clear your doubts, You must read the Bible. You can start from the Book of Kings and read until the Gospels.
But simply saying, God wanted to set an example to the mankind how to Love and live peacefully. He tried to do it with Good Kings and Prophets but didn't work. So He sent came by himself as a human and as the Son of God. And there is a Christian saying "There is no greater way to show love than to sacrifice yourself for your friend". Likewise, Jesus sacrifized himself in the cross. Hope you got it❤✌.
@@markrobin9348 @Mark Robinson Thank you for the reply. But saying God tried and it didn't work, is simply saying God does not know what he is doing. He manages the world which he has created through "trial and error", as if saying God doesn't understand the mentality of His own creation. Like He created them but they went out of control. Now a second point. God sent his son, or came himself to set an example, then what about the people before God sent his son or came himself? What’s to become of them? And during the time God was on the cross, who managed the world? Now if a Christan person thinks about it, God Has come/sent his son to redeem me, so why would he still judge me? And if i know that a priest has the power to save my soul, why would i still worry about reward and punishment?
I have so many questions.
I do thank you for taking the time to reply. Very much appreciated. ♥️
@@夏川徳川 Well, I think It's like a relationship with parents and Children. Even though Parents brought those children to this world, Even though they took care, provided and did everything, Sometimes the Kids go HAYWIRE. And It is a human nature. Inevitable.Likewise It happened with God and His creation. And the persons he selected to guide the people were also normal men and women. So the people didn't believe them or their faith faded away overtime.
And we believe that, Just because someone is Christian or not, Doesn't mean they will sure go to heaven or hell. It's all based on your sins and good deeds.
A priest has the power to give you confession. Which means even if you are a sinner but you suffer thinking about it, you really want to change and become a good person, You can do a good confession and can even become a Saint. But the scars of the sins will be there. Like a stamp. For which you will have to pay before going to the eternal life. So All the Priests and Pope, Saints and Prophets guide us to do as little sin as we can so we won't have to suffer later.
Personally, I have a little bit of different understanding. But this is all I can tell with the theory. Hope it helped you❤
You must see the reason for the fulfillment. He was hung on the cross FOR the religious leaders who said Jesus comitted blasphemy, calling himself God. The Pharasies could not put the death sentence on someone, Pilate had to have it done. To please them Pilate did it. When Jesus said "I Am" that is truly what he was doing but it was no blasphemy as it was true and prophecy fulfilled. In Genesis Adam and Eve broke the only rule they were given. The consequence was death. They didn't die right away so the serpent convinced them God lied and wanted all the knowledge for himself. But for God to be a just God, righteous and worthy to follow he must speak truth. They would die physically, just not for a long time. As would everyone, being shown in how Cain killed his brother Abel. For God to be true....he must do what he said he would do. But he is also a caring and loving God, he even gave Cain protection. He wanted to give mankind a way out of that death sentence. So he had a son by way of the Holy Spirit and here is a mystery we may never understand till we see God face to face....but maybe....if you like science...somehow God cloned himself....if you must have some kind of explanation, but that is only an idea of mine. He gave his own son, a part of himself, to step in and take the penalty for that sin. This is how he shows he is a righteous and just God... he took the penalty himself. Only someone without sin could do this for everyone who would believe in him. But of course God can not die so he did it this way. Think on this and study and pray. Don't just react. God was not mean...he was righteous, and true, did what he said he would do.
Also Philipians 3 I think, says how Jesus humbled himself, gave up all his rights for us. He agreed to do it. Mary agreed to have Jesus. God never forced anything. Some people will sacrifice their lives for a friend or family. Some, rare ones, will for a stranger, like a soldier or policeman. And they do it willingly. Jesus gave up his life willingly. For each one of us. And he knew ahead of time the joy that would come from his resurrection even though he would endure great physical and mental pain first.

I LIKE THIS ONE VIDIO
Viva Cristo Rey
Well, that is the actual name of Jesus in Latin because in Hebrew his name is Yashua ,even though the Jews put that inscription as a joke that was a true statement!!! Yet, the Lord sent Jesus to this planet to save us, He proudly made it and conquer the cross and rose from the death to let the people know that He was actually what He said He was when He talked to the people, yet the people that He was sent to save from the evil didn’t wanted to followed Him, but for those who followed Him He gave them be called sons and daughters of the God!!!
SORRY BROTHER YOU ARE WRONGE, I SAY THAT IN A KIND WAY- BUT THIS ALL NEEDS CORRECTED. IN OLD HEBREW IT MEANS DIFFERENT: HERE'S WHAT IT MEANS, IT IS NOT JESUS IT MEANS RIGHTEOUS , (IESVS) NAZARENVS MEANS (BRANCH) REX MEANS (MY WITNESS, CHOSEN GOD'S IMAGE) IVDAEORVA MEANS (SALVATION)HIS TRUE NAME IS MESSIAH- IMMANUEL SCRIPTURE REFERENCES MATHEW 1:23 AND ISAIAH 7:14 IMMANUEL GOD WITH US! GOD BLESS ALL!
IESUS NAZARENUS REX
IUDEADIORUM JESUS OF NAZARETH
KING OF THE JEWS
JESUS is our Lord. JESUS is love🕊
Jesus punches through the noise of our world. His presence on Earth as a Lamb led to slaugher is, to human minds, completely irrational.
Great vid but I would offer this: Pilate wasn't mocking Jesus :
"Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered, What I have written I have written” (John 19:19-22)
However, Jesus never claimed to be king of Jews. He was merely accused of it. To know why that title or claim was punishable by death, learn more about John the Baptist who Jesus knelt before asking to be baptized.
This Is a iesus nazarenus rex iudaeorum in latin
thanks man
The inscription on the cross writen, “Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews ".Why not Jesus the nazarene , the son of god? jesus son of god ? Something like that?
It was considered blasphemy.
INRI
I'm Nailed Right In
You are programmed wrong Bro. It stands for the first four elements! Only in Early Latin
Jesus is from Bethlehem, aka Israel he just grew up in Nazareth
How come Iesus is King of Jews whereas Jews totally rejected him?
rabbiisa almasih this name was dubbed in a mocking way at the time by those that crucified him. His followers called him the king of Israel if I remember correctly in the Bible. INRI was written on the cross tho and so nowadays we’ve turned it into a positive symbol saying he was the actual king of the Jews
@@chefcuhdon33 i like your speculation
@@rabbiisaalmasih9116 it's not a speculation. Jesus is born of Royal Blood. He is the descendant of King David. He is also the Messiah and the King of Jews. However the Jews crucified Him and He fulfilled His purpose. To save mankind from sin by His blood. There's so much to explain. But just know that it's not a speculation. He is the King of Jews!
@@benthompson9772 but Jesus's will is not to be crucified, if you understand what is the meaning of 'please take away this cup from me'
@@rabbiisaalmasih9116 Pl read the Bible prayerfully, only then the purpose of The Inarnation will be revealed. Read the next worse, But it is Your will. "" Total submision to the Will of God The Father. He being God himself was able to foresee the tormentatoin awaiting Him. At the same time, He had to undergo inthe humanflesh. That is why He prayed so. There also he was seeking the will of God, the Father. There, on the Cross, he relinquished human life , submitting to the Heavenly Father. This is history. The coming of Jesus marked the new Era"AD".
Then y Jews reject Jesus
In Latin, Iesous is Jesus and Iudeaorum is Judeaorum. So, what Pilate wrote in Latin would be JNRJ. INRI is not Latin. Sorry.
Fact check: Iuedeaorum = citizens of Judea; not Jews. No one called themselves Jews back then.
"No one called themselves Jews back then."
Because there was no "back then". Never has been, never will be!
I don't agree
JUEDEAORUM=JERUSALEM
Do this acronym in hebrew. And you will get yod hey wah hey. This is because God said to Moses this is my name forever and he gave him a acronym. This acronym would not be seen and fully understood until put on the cross.
IDF IS IN RI jesus is everything 🙏 I am in the NKJV bible IDF RI
Out to golgotha, or place of the skulls, for a barbaric death•••Christ suffered and died, at the cross for the sins of all time☆☆☆
You have really told false stories iesus is a Greek god Jesus it's just that as English language underwent transformation it changed people wake up the true name is "ISA" look at names of prophets like Elisha , Isaiah this are little evidence to show you that ISA is the real Son of God pronouns, names of people and places don't change
Smells a little bit weird to me
