John 19
|
1 |
Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and
scourged him.
|
2 |
And the soldiers platted a crown of
thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple
robe,
|
3 |
and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and
they smote him with their hands.
|
4 |
Pilate therefore went forth again, and
saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know
that I find no fault in him.
|
5 |
Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown
of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them,
Behold the man!
|
6 |
When the chief priests therefore and
officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him,
crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify
him: for I find no fault in him.
|
7 |
The Jews answered him, We have a law, and
by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of
God.
|
8 |
When Pilate therefore heard that saying,
he was the more afraid;
|
9 |
and went again into the judgment hall,
and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no
answer.
|
10 |
Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou
not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and
have power to release thee?
|
11 |
Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no
power at all against me, except it were given thee from
above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater
sin.
|
12 |
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to
release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man
go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king
speaketh against Caesar.
|
13 |
When Pilate therefore heard that saying,
he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place
that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gab'batha.
|
14 |
And it was the preparation of the
passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews,
Behold your King!
|
15 |
But they cried out, Away with him,
away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I
crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but
Caesar.
|
16 |
Then delivered he him therefore unto them
to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him
away.
|
The
Crucifixion |
Mt. 27.32-50 ·
Mk. 15.21-37
· Lk.
23.26-49 |
17 |
And he bearing his cross went forth
into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in
the Hebrew Gol'gotha:
|
18 |
where they crucified him, and two others
with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
|
19 |
And Pilate wrote a title, and put
it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF
NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
|
20 |
This title then read many of the Jews;
for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it
was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
|
21 |
Then said the chief priests of the Jews
to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am
King of the Jews.
|
22 |
Pilate answered, What I have written I
have written.
|
23 |
Then the soldiers, when they had
crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every
soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without
seam, woven from the top throughout.
|
24 |
They said therefore among themselves, Let
us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the
Scripture might be fulfilled, which saith,
|
They parted my raiment among them, |
and for my vesture they did cast lots. Ps.
22.18
| |
|
|
These things therefore the soldiers
did. |
25 |
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus
his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of
Cle'ophas, and Mary Mag'dalene.
|
26 |
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and
the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother,
Woman, behold thy son!
|
27 |
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy
mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own
home.
|
28 |
After this, Jesus knowing that all
things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled,
saith, I thirst.
|
29 |
Now there was set a vessel full of
vinegar: and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it
upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. Ps. 69.21
|
30 |
When Jesus therefore had received the
vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up
the ghost.
|
Jesus' Side
Pierced |
31 |
The Jews therefore, because it was the
preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the
sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate
that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken
away.
|
32 |
Then came the soldiers, and brake the
legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with
him.
|
33 |
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that
he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
|
34 |
but one of the soldiers with a spear
pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and
water.
|
35 |
And he that saw it bare record,
and his record is true; and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye
might believe.
|
36 |
For these things were done, that the
Scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
Ex.
12.46 · Num.
9.12 · Ps.
34.20
|
37 |
And again another Scripture saith, They
shall look on him whom they pierced. Zech. 12.10 ·
Rev. 1.7

The Burial of
Jesus |
Mt. 27.57-61 ·
Mk. 15.42-47
· Lk.
23.50-56 |
38 |
And after this Joseph of Arimathe'a,
being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews,
besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and
Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body
of Jesus.
|
39 |
And there came also Nicode'mus, which at
the first came to Jesus by night, Joh. 3.1, 2 and
brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pound
weight.
|
40 |
Then took they the body of Jesus, and
wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews
is to bury.
|
41 |
Now in the place where he was crucified
there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was
never man yet laid.
|
42 |
There laid they Jesus therefore because
of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at
hand.
