- From
Wesley's Notes.
Chapter 19.
- "It was strange, seeing he was dead, that blood should come out; more strange, that water also; and most strange of all, that both should come out immediately, at one time, and yet distinctly. It was pure and true water, as well as pure and true blood. The asseveration of the beholder and testifier of it, shows both the truth and greatness of the miracle and mystery."
- Exposition of
Luke 23:33-46; John 19:25-30, Charles H. Spurgeon, 1869.
- "How often, when men say, "I forgive you," is there a kind of selfishness about it! At any rate, self is asserted in the very act of forgiving. Jesus take the place of a pleader, a pleader for those who were committing murder upon himself."
- From the
Commentary on the Whole Bible
(Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
Chapter
19.
- "What is finished? The Law is fulfilled as never before, nor since, in His "obedience unto death, even the death of the cross"; Messianic prophecy is accomplished; Redemption is completed; "He hath finished the transgression, and made reconciliation for iniquity, and brought in everlasting righteousness, and sealed up the vision and prophecy, and anointed a holy of holies"; He has inaugurated the kingdom of God and given birth to a new world."
- "The
Shortest of the Seven Cries," John 19:28, Charles H. Spurgeon, 1878.
- "Our Lord, however, endured thirst to an extreme degree, for it was the thirst of death which was upon him, and more, it was the thirst of one whose death was not a common one, for "he tasted death for every man.""
- From The People's
New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891. Chapter 19
- "It would be hard for Pilate to form any conception of a kingdom not of this world, a kingdom of which the subjects did not fight with carnal weapons to defend its king, or to extend its borders. He was a soldier and the representative of a monarch whose power rested on the sword. But such a kingdom was Christ's."

- "The Truth," Frederick Buechner, Buechner Blog.
- "Pilate asks his famous question, 'What is truth?' (John 18:38), and Jesus answers him with a silence that is overwhelming in its eloquence. In case there should be any question as to what that silence meant, on another occasion Jesus put it into words for his disciple Thomas. 'I,' he said, 'I am the truth' (14:6)"
- "A Different Kind of King," Barbara K. Lundblad, ON Scripture, Odyssey Networks, 2012.
- "Christ the King Sunday is a dissonant day. Some congregations have changed the name to Reign of Christ Sunday to avoid the male image of 'king.' But that doesn’t make much difference if we forget that Jesus is 'poor little Mary’s boy.' The ancient creeds got something right when they remembered Mary and Pontius Pilate almost in the same breath."

Visionaries, particularly those who let their visions be the agenda for their lives here and now, inevitably confront the forces which want to control the present and mostly resist change."

- "Nicodemus had heard enough about what Jesus was up to in Jerusalem to make him think he ought to pay him a visit and find out more. On the other hand, as a VIP with a big theological reputation to uphold, he decided it might be just as well to pay it at night. Better to be at least fairly safe than to be sorry, he thought, so he waited till he thought his neighbors were all asleep."

"First
Thoughts on Year C Gospel Passages in the Lectionary,"
Good Friday,
William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
- "Love is revealed even in the face of suffering (which despite the confidence is real as 12:27 and 18:11 show). The effect is to reveal love and expose hate and so offer a new beginning."

John 19:38-42 (Holy Saturday)
- "To outsiders, a battered and broken Jesus could no longer hold his head up and died in humiliation and defeat. But to those who believe into him, a true Son of God has completed his great work, and with a royal nod (and maybe a mischievous wink?) has passed on his Spirit so that we too might have life - the life that was in Jesus."

Magdalene and the Disciple Jesus Loved,"
Esther A. deBoer, Lectio Difficilior (The European Journal for

- "Primarily on the basis of John 19,25-17 and 20,1-18 , but also on the basis of John?s caution concerning female discipleship, on the basis of the repressive elements within and without the Johannine community when the authority of women is at stake, and on the basis of Charlesworth?s eight criteria, I conclude that Mary Magdalene should be seen as a serious candidate for the identification of the anonymous disciple Jesus loved in the Gospel of John."
