"Righteous" is used as an adjective to describe a noun that appears to be "morally right" or "fine and genuine." "Righteous anger" is to have strong feelings of anger when you think a situation is not morally right or unfair.
Although "righteous" in the biblical context is usually a positive word, meaning someone who does right, it can also have a negative connotation, suggesting one who is hypocritical or lacking in compassion or both. In the compound "self-righteous" always has this negative connotation.
Another Answer:
"Righteouse" is a rising recording artist whose real name is Harry A McRae.The word is spelled "righteous", and means being right. It means to be right with God or another absolute principle of rightness. Often it is applied to people who are unwarrantedly confident that they are in the right, especially on moral issues. In other words, humility is not a virtue you expect from someone described as "righteous".
