João 19:16

16 Então lho entregou para ser crucificado.

João 19:16 Meaning and Commentary

John 19:16

Then delivered he him therefore
Perceiving he could not by any means work upon them, and that nothing would satisfy them but his death; he therefore passed sentence on him, and gave him up to their will,

unto them to be crucified;
as they requested, and which was done in a judicial way, and all by divine appointment, according to the counsel and foreknowledge of God:

and they took Jesus and led him away;
directly from the judgment hall, out of the city to the place of execution, whither he was led as a lamb to the slaughter, without opening his mouth against God or man; but behaved with the utmost patience, meekness, and resignation.

João 19:16 In-Context

14 Ora, era a preparação da páscoa, e cerca da hora sexta. E disse aos judeus: Eis o vosso rei.
15 Mas eles clamaram: Tira-o! tira-o! crucifica-o! Disse-lhes Pilatos: Hei de crucificar o vosso rei? responderam, os principais sacerdotes: Não temos rei, senão César.
16 Então lho entregou para ser crucificado.
17 Tomaram, pois, a Jesus; e ele, carregando a sua própria cruz, saiu para o lugar chamado Caveira, que em hebraico se chama Gólgota,
18 onde o crucificaram, e com ele outros dois, um de cada lado, e Jesus no meio.
