Salmos 22:18 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 22:18

They part my garments among them
Such as died the death of the cross were crucified naked ^F8, and their clothes were the perquisites of the executioners; there were four soldiers concerned in the crucifixion of Christ, and these parted his garments into four parts, and everyone took his part;

and cast lots on my vesture;
which was a seamless coat, wove from the top to the bottom; and therefore, not willing to rend it, they cast lots upon it who should have it; all this was exactly fulfilled in Christ, ( John 19:23 John 19:24 ) .

Salmos 22:18 In-Context

16 Porque perros me han rodeado; me ha cercado cuadrilla de malhechores; me horadaron las manos y los pies.

17 Puedo contar todos mis huesos. Ellos me miran, me observan;

18 reparten mis vestidos entre sí, y sobre mi ropa echan suertes.

19 Pero tú, oh SEÑOR, no estés lejos; fuerza mía, apresúrate a socorrerme.

20 Libra mi alma de la espada, mi única vida de las garras del perro.
