John 19: 30-37

30After Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and released his spirit. 31Since it was the Preparation Day, the Jews did not want to leave the bodies on the crosses during the Sabbath, for that was a particularly important Sabbath. So they asked Pilate to have the men's legs broken and the bodiesi removed. 32So the soldiers went and broke the legs of the first man and then of the other man who had been crucified with him. 33But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34Instead, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and blood and water immediately came out. 35The one who saw this has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows he is telling the truth so that you, too, may believe. 36For these things happened so that the Scripture might be fulfilled: 37“None of his bones will be broken.” 38In addition, another passage of Scripture says, “They will look on the one whom they pierced.”
