19:1 |
Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged Him.
|
19:2 |
And the soldiers wove a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and arrayed Him in a purple robe;
|
19:3 |
and they [began] to come up to Him, and say, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and to give Him blows [in the face].
|
19:4 |
And Pilate came out again, and said to them, "Behold, I am bringing Him out to you, that you may know that I find no guilt in Him."
|
19:5 |
Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And [Pilate] said to them, "Behold, the Man!"
|
19:6 |
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, "Crucify, crucify!" Pilate said to them, "Take Him yourselves, and crucify Him, for I find no guilt in Him."
|
19:7 |
The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by that law He ought to die because He made Himself out [to] [be] the Son of God."
|
19:8 |
When Pilate therefore heard this statement, he was the more afraid;
|
19:9 |
and he entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are You from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.
|
19:10 |
Pilate therefore said to Him, "You do not speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You, and I have authority to crucify You?"
|
19:11 |
Jesus answered, "You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above; for this reason he who delivered Me up to you has [the] greater sin."
|
19:12 |
As a result of this Pilate made efforts to release Him, but the Jews cried out, saying, "If you release this Man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone who makes himself out [to be] a king opposes Caesar."
|
19:13 |
When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
|
19:14 |
Now it was the day of preparation for the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, "Behold, your King!"
|
19:15 |
They therefore cried out, "Away with [Him], away with [Him], crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."
|
19:16 |
So he then delivered Him to them to be crucified.
|
19:17 |
They took Jesus therefore, and He went out, bearing His own cross, to the place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha.
|
19:18 |
There they crucified Him, and with Him two other men, one on either side, and Jesus in between.
|
19:19 |
And Pilate wrote an inscription also, and put it on the cross. And it was written, "JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS."
|
19:20 |
Therefore this inscription many of the Jews read, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, [and] in Greek.
|
19:21 |
And so the chief priests of the Jews were saying to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews'; but that He said, 'I am King of the Jews.'"
|
19:22 |
Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."
|
19:23 |
The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took His outer garments and made four parts, a part to every soldier and [also] the tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece.
|
19:24 |
They said therefore to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, [to decide] whose it shall be"; that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "They divided My outer garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots."
|
19:25 |
Therefore the soldiers did these things. But there were standing by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
|
19:26 |
When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, "Woman, behold, your son!"
|
19:27 |
Then He said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" And from that hour the disciple took her into his own [household].
|
19:28 |
After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I am thirsty."
|
19:29 |
A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon [a branch] [of] hyssop, and brought it up to His mouth.
|
19:30 |
When Jesus therefore had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And He bowed His head, and gave up His spirit.
|
19:31 |
The Jews therefore, because it was the day of preparation, so that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high [day]), asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.
|
19:32 |
The soldiers therefore came, and broke the legs of the first man, and of the other man who was crucified with Him;
|
19:33 |
but coming to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs;
|
19:34 |
but one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately there came out blood and water.
|
19:35 |
And he who has seen has borne witness, and his witness is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
|
19:36 |
For these things came to pass, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a bone of Him shall be broken."
|
19:37 |
And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they pierced."
|
19:38 |
And after these things Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but a secret [one], for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate granted permission. He came therefore, and took away His body.
|
19:39 |
And Nicodemus came also, who had first come to Him by night; bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds [weight].
|
19:40 |
And so they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen wrappings with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.
|
19:41 |
Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been laid.
|
19:42 |
Therefore on account of the Jewish day of preparation, because the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
