Anastasi kai Zoi (Sacrifice and Life): This Greek name of Jesus is found in John’s Gospel and refers<br />

to the sacrifice, the crucifixion and the after life given to Man by God through Jesus Christ.<br />

Several Greek names of Jesus contain the word Bassilias, which means ‘The King”. Therefore you<br />

can find references of Jesus Christ as Bassilias tis Doksas (King of Glory),Bassilias ton<br />

Bassiliadon (King of Kings, in the Apocalypse).<br />

The names Kalos Poimenas (Good Shepherd), Rabbi (Teacher), Sotiras (Savior), Gios tou<br />

Anthropou (Son of Man) refer to the particular relationship between the Christ and humans and the<br />

important role that Jesus played in the history and evolution of mankind and their beliefs.<br />
