Summary/Abstract: he study focuses on the question of inspiration and authority in Jesus’ statements about himself in the Synoptic Gospels and in the Gospel according to John. The starting point is an anlysis of Jesus’ prayer to the Father and the event of his baptism in the Jordan as key theological moments that shape his awareness of his mission and relationship with God. The author shows that it is precisely these experiences that are the source of Jesus’ spiritual authority and inspiration for his wisdom and self-referential statements. Jesus’ prayer is interpreted as a space of intense communication with the Father, from which springs the certainty of his identity and teaching, while baptism is understood as an initiatory event of public service, confirmed by the voice of God and the Holy Spirit. The study points to the internal unity between Jesus’ spiritual experience and the authoritative character of his statements, which the Gospels capture as an expression of God’s unique authority.
