Jon Raude (died 21 December 1282), nicknamed the Steadfast (hinn staðfasti), was Archbishop of Nidaros from October 1267 until his death in 1282.

He was in Rome in 1266, when he was tasked by Pope Clement IV with delivering the pallium to the recently appointed Archbishop Håkon of Nidaros.

[1] Raude began to develop a new Norwegian church law shortly afterward, and in this effort he collaborated with Bishop Árni Þorláksson of Skálholt in Iceland.

Additionally, the freedom of episcopal elections was guaranteed, and the Archbishop obtained the supreme right to appoint priests, including at the royal chapels.

[3] Archbishop Raude attended the Second Council of Lyon in 1274, where he was tasked with collecting a new tax from his diocese to finance a planned crusade.

The regency council which governed the realm on Eric II's behalf, which was led by his mother Ingeborg of Denmark and dominated by a group of powerful barons, was not as inclined to acquiesce to the church's demands.

Their counteroffensive began shortly after King Eric's coronation; the Archbishop's right to mint coinage was revoked, and a new regulation of the tithe, which had been included in Raude's church law, was rescinded.
