Jesus speaks to the women of Jerusalem

Jesus is nailed to the cross

"I thirst." (John 19:28) "I thirst," Jesus groans from the Cross. Though the cause of Jesus' groan here is the utterly unique physical and spiritual anguish he is experiencing during his execution, the experience of thirst has hardly been a stranger to him.

Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commend my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last. Luke 23:46 Reflection:

"Amen, I say to you. Today you will be with me in Paradise." (Luke 23:43)

"Woman, behold your son." (John 19:26)   Reflection: With these words, Jesus does much more than ask a friend to take care of his mom once he's gone.  This is a profound moment to witness, as he entrusts Mary and John to one another as family.
