It was the third hour when they crucified him.

This is the King of the Jews

John 19:19-22Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened

to the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin,

and Greek. The chief priests of the Jews protested to

Pilate, "Do not write `The King of the Jews,' but that

this man claimed to be king of the Jews." Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have

written."

His First Word on the Cross

Luke 23:33-34

When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him,

along with the criminals– one on his right, the other on his

left. Jesus said,

"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are

doing.“

one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining.

This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

"Let's not tear it," they said to one another. "Let's decide by lot who will get it." This

happened that the scripture might be fulfilled which said,

"They divided my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing."

Blasphemed and Mocked by All

Luke 23:36-37The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar and said,

"If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself."

by becoming a curse for us, for it is written:

"Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree."

His Second Word

Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother,his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he

loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, "Dear woman, here is your son,"

and to the disciple, "Here is your mother." From that time on, this disciple took her into

his home.

His Third Word

Luke 23:39-43One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: "Aren't you the

Christ? Save yourself and us!" But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? We are punished

justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong." Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom." Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."

1 Peter 3:18

For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the

unrighteous, to bring you to God.

His Fourth Word

Mark 15:33-36At the sixth hour darkness came over the

whole land until the ninth hour. At the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud

voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"--which means,

"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" When some of those standing near

heard this, they said, "Listen, he's calling Elijah." One man ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus to

drink. "Now leave him alone.

Let's see if Elijah comes to take him down," he said.

His Fifth Word

John 19:28-30Later, knowing that all was now completed, and so that the Scripture would be fulfilled,

Jesus said, "I am thirsty."

His Sixth Word

John 19:28-30A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they

soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to

Jesus' lips.

When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished.“

His Seventh Word & His Death

Luke 23:46

Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last.

Hebrews 2:14-15

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds

the power of death--that is, the devil-- and free those who all their lives were held

in slavery by their fear of death.

The Miraculous Signs

Matt. 27:51-56At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus'

resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people. When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, "Surely he was the Son of God!" Many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to

care for his needs. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses,

and the mother of Zebedee's sons.

They Pierce His Side

Ephesians 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood,

the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace

They Pierce His Side

1 Peter. 1:18-19For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were

redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to

you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ,

a lamb without blemish or defect.

The Burial

John 19:38-40Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for

the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the

Jews. With Pilate's permission, he came and took the body away. He was accompanied by

Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture

of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.

Taking Jesus' body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs.

John 19:41-42

At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. Because it was the Jewish

day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus

there.
