John 19:24
Compare all
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 aThen the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.  
24 They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:
a“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.  

Behold Your Mother

25 aNow there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of bClopas, and Mary Magdalene.  
26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and athe disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, b“Woman, behold your son!”  
27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her ato his own home.  

It Is Finished

28 After this, Jesus,1 knowing that all things were now accomplished, athat the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!”  
29 Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and athey filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth.  
30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, a“It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.  

Jesus’ Side Is Pierced

31 aTherefore, because it was the Preparation Day, bthat the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a chigh day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.  
32 Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him.
33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.
34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately ablood and water came out.  
35 And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is atrue; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you may bbelieve.  
36 For these things were done that the Scripture should be fulfilled, a“Not one of His bones shall be broken.”  
37 And again another Scripture says, a“They shall look on Him whom they pierced.”  

Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb

38 aAfter this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, bfor fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took the body of Jesus.  
39 And aNicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of bmyrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

John 19:24

That the scripture might be fulfilled - These words are found in the common printed text, in Matthew 27:35; but they are omitted by ABDEFGHKLMSU, Mt. BHV, 150 others; the principal versions, Chrysostom, Titus Bost., Euthymius, Theophylact, Origen, Hilary, Augustin, Juven. See Griesbach' s second edition. But in the text of John they are not omitted by one MS., version, or ancient commentator.

The words are taken from Psalms 22:18, where it appears they were spoken prophetically of this treatment which Jesus received, upwards of a thousand years before it took place!

But it should be remarked that this form of speech, which frequently occurs, often means no more than that the thing so fell out that such a portion of Scripture may be exactly applied to it.
