    John 19

    Though in the history hitherto this evangelist seems industriously to have declined the recording of such passages as had been related by the other evangelists, yet, when he comes to the sufferings and death of Christ, instead of passing them over, as one ashamed of his Master’s chain and cross, and looking upon them as the blemishes of his story, he repeats what had been before related, with considerable enlargements, as one that desired to know nothing but Christ and him crucified, to glory in nothing save in the cross of Christ. In the story of this chapter we have, I. he remainder of Christ’s trial before Pilate, which was tumultuous and confused, John 19:1-19:15. II. Sentence given, and execution done upon it, John 19:16-19:18. III. The title over his head, John 19:19-19:22. IV. The parting of his garment, John 19:23, 19:24. V. The care he took of his mother, John 19:25-19:27. VI. The giving him vinegar to drink, John 19:28, 19:29. VII. His dying word, John 19:30. VIII. The piercing of his side, John 19:31-19:37. IX. The burial of his body, John 19:38-19:42. O that in meditating on these things we may experimentally know the power of Christ’s death, and the fellowship of his sufferings!MHBCC 1017.1
