ugh the whole. [19:24]They
said, therefore, one to another, Let us not divide this, but cast lots
for it whose it shall be; that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which
says, They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast
lots. The soldiers therefore did indeed these things.

3 [19:25]And there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and the
sister of his mother, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene.
[19:26]Then Jesus seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by whom
he loved, 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 to his own [house].

4 [19:28]After this, Jesus knowing that all things were already
finished, that the Scripture might be fully accomplished, said, I
thirst. [19:29]Then a vessel was set full of vinegar; and filling a
sponge with vinegar, and putting it on a hyssop stalk, they presented

fulfilled, Not a bone of him shall be broken; [19:37]and again another
Scripture says, They shall look on him whom they have pierced.

Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might
take down the body of Jesus; and Pilate permitted him. Then he came and
took his body. [19:39]And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by
