[John 19]

 

             ^19:1 Therefore, Pilate then took Jesus and scourged him. ^19:2 And the soldiers braided a crown out-of thorns and placed it upon his head and dressed him in a purple garment; ^19:3 and were saying, Hail, King of the Jews! And they were giving slaps on the cheek to him.

             ^19:4 Therefore, Pilate went outside again and says to them, Behold, I am leading him outside to you^°, in-order-that you^° may know that I am finding no crime in him. ^19:5 Therefore, Jesus came outside, wearing the thorny crown and the purple garment. And he says to them, Behold, the man!

             ^19:6 Therefore, when the high-priests and the attendants saw him, they cried-out, saying, Crucify! Crucify him!

             Pilate says to them, You^°, take^° him and crucify^° him; for^* I am finding no crime in him.

             ^19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a law and according-to our law he ought to die, because he made^* himself the Son of God.

             ^19:8 Therefore, when Pilate heard this word, he was more afraid; ^19:9 and he entered into the palace again and says to Jesus, Where are you from? But Jesus gave him no answer. ^19:10 Therefore, Pilate says to him, Why do you not speak to me? Do you not know, I have authority to release you and have authority to crucify you?

             ^19:11 Jesus answered, You were holding no authority against me, unless it was given to you from above. He who gives me to you has the greater sin because of this.

             ^19:12 From this time, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews were crying out, saying, If you release this one, you are no friend of Caesar. Everyone who makes^* himself a king speaks against Caesar. ^19:13 Therefore, Pilate heard this word and led Jesus outside and sat down upon the judicial-seat in a place called^* The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha. ^19:14 But it was the Preparation of the Passover and was approximately the sixth hour {i.e., Noon}.

             Now he says to the Jews, Behold, your^° King!

             ^19:15 But they cried-out, Take him, take him, crucify him!

             Pilate says to them, Will I crucify your^° King?

             The high-priests answered, We have no king except Caesar. ^19:16 Therefore, then he gave him up to them in-order-that he might be crucified and they took Jesus and led him away.

 

             {Mar 15:20-23 & Mat 27:31-34 & Luk 23:26-33 & Joh 19:17 Road to the Cross, Fri. morning.}

             ^19:17 And he went forth, bearing his cross, to a place called^*, Place of a Skull, which is called^* in Hebrew, Golgotha,

             {Mar 15:24-32 & Mat 27:35-44 & Luk 23:33-43 & Joh 19:18-27 9:00 AM to Noon, Fri.}

             ^19:18 where they crucified him and two others with him, from here and then from here {i.e., one on both sides} and Jesus in the middle. ^19:19 But Pilate also wrote a title and placed it upon the cross. Now it was written, Jesus the Nazarene, the King of the Jews. ^19:20 Therefore, many of the Jews read this title, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek and in Latin.

             ^19:21 Therefore, the high-priests of the Jews were saying to Pilate, Do not write, The King of the Jews, but, That man said, I am King of the Jews.

             ^19:22 Pilate answered, I have written what I have written.

 

             ^19:23 Therefore, the soldiers, when they crucified Jesus, took his garments and made^* four parts, a part to each soldier, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was seamless from the top, because it was entirely woven. ^19:24 Therefore, they said to one another, We should not split-apart this tunic, but should do a lot concerning it; whose it will be. This happened in-order-that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, ‘They divided my garments for themselves and they cast a lot upon my garment.’ {Psa 22.18} Therefore indeed, the soldiers did^* these things. ^19:25 But, his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary the Magdalene stood beside the cross of Jesus.

             ^19:26 Therefore, after Jesus saw his mother and the disciple, whom he loved^*, standing beside her, he says to his mother, Woman, behold your son! ^19:27 Thereafter he says to the disciple, Behold, your mother! And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

 

             {Mar 15:34-41 & Mat 27:46-56 & Luk 23:45-49 & Joh 19:28-30 around 5:00 PM.}

             ^19:28 After this Jesus saw that all things have already been completed, in-order-that the Scripture might be completed, which says, ‘I am thirsty.’ {Psa 69:21} ^19:29 Therefore, a vessel was laying full of vinegar, and they filled a sponge from the vinegar vessel and placed it around a hyssop, and brought it to his mouth. ^19:30 Therefore, when Jesus received the vinegar, he said, It has been completed. And he bowed his head and gave up the spirit.

 

             {Mar 15:42-47 & Mat 27:57-66 & Luk 23:50-56 & Joh 19:31-42 Before The Sabbath.}

             ^19:31 Therefore, the Jews asked Pilate in-order-that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath since it was the Preparation (for^* the day of that Sabbath was a great day), that^* their legs might be fractured and that^* they might be taken down. ^19:32 Therefore, the soldiers came, and indeed fractured the legs of the first and of the other one who was crucified together-with him, ^19:33 but after they came upon Jesus, as they saw him the one who has already died, they did not fracture his legs; ^19:34 but one of the soldiers pierced his rib-cage with a spear and immediately blood and water came forth. ^19:35 And he who has seen, has testified and his testimony is true^* and he knows that he says true^* things, in-order-that you^° might believe. ^19:36 For^* these things happened in-order-that the Scripture might be fulfilled, ‘A bone from him will not be crushed.’ {Exo 12:46 & Num 9:12 & Psa 34:20} ^19:37 And again a different Scripture says, ‘They will be looking at the one whom they stabbed.’ {Zec 12:10}

 

             ^19:38 After these things, Joseph from Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but has been hidden because of his fear of the Jews, asked Pilate in-order-that he might take the body of Jesus and Pilate permitted^* him. Therefore, he came and took the body of Jesus. ^19:39 Now Nicodemus also came, he who came to Jesus the first time by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloe, approximately a hundred pounds of it. ^19:40 Therefore, they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen-strips with the spices, just-as the custom of the Jews is to bury one. ^19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and a new tomb was in the garden in which no one was yet placed. ^19:42 Therefore, they placed Jesus there because of the Jews’ Preparation, and because the tomb was near.
