Stations Of The Cross: Twelveth Station - Jesus Dies On The Cross

The death of Jesus
After this, Jesus knew that everything had now been completed and, so that the scripture should be completely fulfilled, he said:

I am thirsty.

A jar of sour wine stood there; so, putting a sponge soaked in wine on a hyssop stick, they held it up to his mouth. After Jesus had taken the wine he said,”It is fulfilled”; and bowing his head he gave up his spirit.

(Jn 19:28-30, NJB)
