Juan 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.

Juan 19:16 In-Context

14 Era el día de la preparación para la Pascua, cerca del mediodía.—Aquí tienen a su rey —dijo Pilato a los judíos.

15 —¡Fuera! ¡Fuera! ¡Crucifícalo! —vociferaron.—¿Acaso voy a crucificar a su rey? —replicó Pilato.—No tenemos más rey que el emperador romano —contestaron los jefes de los sacerdotes.

16 Entonces Pilato se lo entregó para que lo crucificaran, y los soldados se lo llevaron.

17 Jesús salió cargando su propia cruz hacia el lugar de la Calavera (que en arameo se llama Gólgota).

18 Allí lo crucificaron, y con él a otros dos, uno a cada lado y Jesús en medio.
