Matthew 27:47

God's Word

When some of the people standing there heard him say that, they said, “He’s calling Elijah.”

See the chapter Copy

“I’m going to send you the prophet Elijah before that very terrifying day of the Lord comes.

If you are willing to accept their message, John is the Elijah who was to come.

About three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”

One of the men ran at once, took a sponge, and soaked it in some vinegar. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink.
