How
many of these statements could also apply to our Lord Jesus dying on the cross
for our sins?
Later, knowing that
everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled,
Jesus said, “I am
thirsty.” A 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.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. (John
19:28-30)
