(24) They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, (34) and cast but cast lots for it whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith," They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did. · LUKE XXIII. (38) And 2a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. JOHN XIX. JOHN XIX. (19) And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. (20) This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. (21) Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews. (22) Pilate answered, What I have written I have written. § 154.

(43) And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. JOHN XIX. 25–27. (25) Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of 5 Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. (26) When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! (27) Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. § 155. Darkness prevails. Christ expires on the Cross. - JERUSALEM. MATT. XXVII. 45-50.

MATT. XXVII. (54) Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God. (55) And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him : (56) among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children. MARK XV. (39) And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he SO 5 cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

Sixth Day of the Week. JOHN XIX. 31-42. 9 (31) The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for 10 that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. (32) Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him. (33) But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he 1 50, 30. his spirit 2 51, etc. Or, sanctuary 3 52, 53. tombs 4 52. that had fallen asleep were raised; 5 39.

(36) For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled," A bone of him shall not be broken. (37) And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced. MARK XV. 42-47. (42) And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, (43) Joseph of Arimatha, 9 an honourable counsellor, there came a rich 8 of Arimathæa, named Joseph, man who al so himself was Jesus' disciple (58) 14 he went to Pilate, and 15 begged the body of Jesus.

(39) And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pounds weight. (40) Then took they the body of Jesus, and 21 wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manto bury.

(62) Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate, (63) saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I 5 will rise again. (64) Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead : 7 so the last error shall be worse than the first. (65) Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
