For while we were still helpless, at [the] right time Christ died for the ungodly.
For one will hardly die for a righteous person; though perhaps for the good person someone would even dare to die.
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
And the chief priests [started] accusing Him of many things.
But Pilate questioned Him again, saying, "Do You offer nothing in answer? See how many charges they are bringing against You!"
But Jesus said nothing further in answer, so Pilate was amazed.
And responding again, Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?"
They shouted back, "Crucify Him!"
But Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has He done?" But they shouted all the more, "Crucify Him!"
Intent on satisfying the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas for them, and after having Jesus flogged, he handed Him over to be crucified.
And they dressed Him in purple, and after twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on Him;
and they began saluting Him: "Hail, King of the Jews!"
And they [repeatedly] beat His head with a reed and spit on Him, and kneeling, they bowed down before Him.
And after they had mocked Him, they took the purple [cloak] off Him and put His [own] garments on Him. And they led Him out to crucify Him.
And they crucified Him, and divided up His garments among themselves, casting lots for them [to decide] what each man would take.
And they crucified two rebels with Him, one on His right and one on His left.
Those passing by were hurling abuse at Him, shaking their heads and saying, "Ha! You who [are going to] destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,
save Yourself by coming down from the cross!"
When the sixth hour came, darkness fell over the whole land until the ninth hour.
At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "ELOI, ELOI, LEMA SABAKTANEI?" which is translated, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?"
Recognizing the value of consistent reflection upon the Word of God in order to refocus one's mind and heart upon Christ and His Gospel of peace, we provide several reading plans designed to cover the entire Bible in a year.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical,
conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy
of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a
range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed
in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
