The problem of the approximation of eigenvalues for a class of a self-adjoint unbounded operators is considered. We estimate the joint error of approximation for the eigenvalues, numbered from \(1\) to \(N\), for a Jacobi matrix \(J\) by the eigenvalues of the finite submatrix \(J_n\) of order \(pn \times pn\), where \(N = \max \{k \in \mathbb{N}: k \leq rpn\}\) and \(r \in (0,1)\) is suitably chosen. We apply this result to obtain the asymptotics of the eigenvalues of \(J\) in the case \(p=3\).
