Jesus Dies on the Cross
Mark 15:33-41
Jesus Dies on the Cross
33
Now when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land
until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus
cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which
is translated, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” 35
Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling
for Elijah!” 36 Then someone ran and filled a sponge
full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink, saying,
“Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”
37 And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.
38 Then the veil of the temple was torn in two from
top to bottom. 39 So when the centurion, who stood
opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he
said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!” 40 There
were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene,
Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome, 41
who also followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and
many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem."
