| Crucifixion” by Andrea Mantegna, 1459 |
When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple
standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold
thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own. Afterwards, Jesus knowing that all things
were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I
thirst. Now there was a vessel set there
full of vinegar. And they, putting a sponge full of vinegar about hyssop, put
it to his mouth. Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is
consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost.
