Jezus jako król w czwartej Ewangelii „To Ty powiedziałeś, że jestem królem” (J 18, 37)

In this article the author tries to look at Jesus Christ as a king. The term „king” appeares on pages of the New and the Old Testament many times. Having that in mind the author analyzes the portrait of Jesus as a king in the Gospel according to St John. He does that particularly in the de- scription of the suffering of the Master from Nazareth. St John mentions Christ's royal title mainly in the account of Jesus being questionned by Pilate, his suffering on Golgotha as well as in the de- cription of events that take place after his death. The analysis of these facts will reveal the signific- ance of Jesus's royal title as well as in what St John saw the royal nature of Jesus and finally what his royal activity was based on.
