Description
The Coronation of Jesus is a significant event in Christian theology and art, representing the moment when Jesus is symbolically acknowledged as King. While the actual coronation of Jesus as a king did not occur in a traditional, worldly sense during his life on Earth, it is a powerful symbol used to express his divine kingship. The idea of Jesus’ coronation is reflected both in the Gospels and in Christian liturgy, particularly in the context of the Passion and the resurrection of Jesus, as well as in the eschatological (end times) vision of Christ’s eternal reign.
The Coronation of Jesus is primarily seen as a mock coronation by the Roman soldiers and religious authorities before his crucifixion. This event is significant in Christian theology, as it reveals the contrast between worldly power and the divine authority of Jesus.
In Christian belief, Jesus’ true coronation happens in a spiritual sense through his resurrection and ascension. After his suffering and death, his kingship is revealed fully to his followers, and it is a kingship that transcends earthly realms.
- Christ the King: The celebration of Christ the King is a feast in the Christian liturgical calendar, particularly in the Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and some Protestant traditions. It is celebrated on the last Sunday of Ordinary Time (the Sunday before Advent) and is a declaration of the eternal reign of Jesus over all creation. His reign is not one of earthly power, but one of love, justice, and truth.
- Jesus’ Kingship in the Gospels: In the Gospels, Jesus is frequently referred to as the “King of the Jews,” especially in the context of his trial and crucifixion. However, his kingdom is not of this world (John 18:36). His kingship is understood to be spiritual and eternal, and his rule is characterized by love, service, and sacrifice, rather than by domination or force.
