Introduction:
1 Cor 1:18 tells us that the Preaching of the Cross is the power of God. That it is a declaration of the power of God. Doesn’t that seem counter intuitive?
Doesn’t it seem like a failure? Gal 6:14 we “glory” in the cross…how.
This passage begins describing for us, from John’s perspective, the crucifixion of our Lord. The text is naturally divided into three parts – that will make up our outline for this message.
Vs. 17-18 begin wit h the location and the crucifixion itself.
Vs. 19-22 shows us the soldiers collecting and casting lots for Jesus garments
Vs23-27 show Jesus’ care and dialoge with faithful disciples and friends.
The New American Commentary: John 12–21 4. The Crucifixion of the King (19:17–27)
This section of the Gospel breaks naturally into three parts. It begins with the scene on the way to skull hill and the crucifixion itself (19:17–18); then it deals with the kingly entitlement of Jesus on the cross (19:19–22); thereafter it contrasts the clothes-collecting, lot-casting soldiers with the faithful observant friends of Jesus around the cross (19:23–24).
