Setting the Stage
In John 19 we see Christ, the ultimate servant, suffering and dying. The cross was simultaneously the most horrific and wonderful event up to this point in history. God Himself sacrificed His own life for His creation. However, this was only the beginning.
The Necessity of New Creation (19:38-42)
The stink of decay (V. 38-40)
- Verse 38-39, Romans typically left a crucified body on the cross to rot and decay and be consumed by scavenging animals. The Jews, however, removed the exposed bodies.
