riversident - John:19:28-37

riversident@John:19:28 @ After this, Jesus knowing that now all things had been completed, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled said,

riversident@John:19:29 @ A pitcher was standing there full of sour wine. Putting a sponge full of sour wine on a hyssop stem, they raised it to his mouth.

riversident@John:19:30 @ When Jesus had taken the sour wine, he said, and bowing his head gave up his spirit.

riversident@John:19:31 @ The Jews, because it was Preparation Day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, for that Sabbath was a great day, requested Pilate to have their legs broken to kill them.

riversident@John:19:32 @ So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was crucified with him.

riversident@John:19:33 @ But, coming to Jesus, when they saw him already dead, they did not break his legs.

riversident@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers with his spear pierced his side and immediately there came forth blood and water.

riversident@John:19:35 @ He who saw it has borne witness and his witness is true, and he knows that he speaks the truth in order that you may believe.

riversident@John:19:36 @ For this happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him shall not be broken."

riversident@John:19:37 @ And again another Scripture says, "They will look on him whom they have pierced."
