Yochanan 19:28-40

²⁸After this, Yeshua, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”

²⁹Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.

³⁰When Yeshua therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

³¹Therefore the Judeans, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.

³²Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;

³³but when they came to Yeshua and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.

³⁴However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

³⁵He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.

³⁶For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”

³⁷Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”

³⁸After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Yeshua, but secretly for fear of the Judeans, asked of Pilate that he might take away Yeshua’s body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.

³⁹Nicodemus, who at first came to Yeshua by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.

⁴⁰So they took Yeshua’s body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Judeans is to bury.
