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, Hame cercado cuadrilla de malignos: Horadaron mis manos y mis pies.
17 Contar puedo todos mis huesos; Ellos miran, considéranme.
18 Partieron entre sí mis vestidos, Y sobre mi ropa echaron suertes.
19 Mas tú, Jehová, no te alejes; Fortaleza mía, apresúrate para mi ayuda.
20 Libra de la espada mi alma; Del poder del perro mi única.
