How preachers through history handled this text
42 public-domain excerpts on John 19, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“Little did Pilate think with what holy regard these sufferings of Christ would, in after-ages, be thought upon and spoken of by the best and greatest of men. Our Lord Jesus came forth, willing to be exposed to their scorn. It is good for every one with faith, to behold Christ Jesus in his sufferings. Behold him, and love him; be still looking unto Jesus. Did their hatred sharpen their endeavours against him? and shall not our love for him quicken our endeavours for him and his kingdom? …”
— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise), on John 19:1–18 (Public Domain)
