July 1, 2021. Gospel John 19:30-35.

“19:30. Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is consummat” “consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost. 19:31. Then the Jews (because it was the parasceve), that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day (for that was a great sabbath day), besought Pilate that their legs might be broken: and that they might be taken away. 19:32. The soldiers therefore came: and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him. 19:33. But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 19:34. But one of the soldiers with a spear opened his side: and immediately there came out blood and water. 19:35. And he that saw it hath given testimony: and his testimony is true. And he knoweth that he saith true: that you also may believe.
