Good morning. So the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was crucified with Him. When they were hanging on the cross, people would have to push up with their legs in order to breathe. Why did the Romans allow that? Because they wanted to prolong the suffering. If they just wanted to kill them, they would’ve done so already. With their legs broken, they would’ve eventually suffocated. But coming to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs. One of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. My Bible says that this was the result of the spear piercing the sac that surrounds the heart and the heart itself. And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he’s telling the truth, so that you also may believe. Most likely this was John since he was there at the cross with the mother of Jesus, and the fact that he was reluctant to name himself in his gospel. For these things came to pass to fulfill the scripture, not a bone of Him shall be broken. And another, they shall look on Him whom they pierced. The Passover lamb was supposed to be without any broken bones; so our Passover Lamb, Jesus, was also to be without broken bone. This brings us to what I consider to be the most important reason why I think that the last supper was not the Passover meal. If the Last Supper were the Passover meal, then Jesus, our Passover Lamb, was sacrificed 24 hours after the Passover lambs were sacrificed. Father help the reader to get everything done that he/she needs to so that he/she can have a week free to do whatever he/she likes.

Out of the smoke came locusts upon the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

But even if you should suffer for the sake of righteousness, you are blessed.

To those, who are chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, and by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood
