12) Jesus’ body would not decay with the preparation by the two men. He would be buried richly in death. He was placed in a new tomb with a heavy stone to guard the entrance.

13) I am awed by Jesus’ death and the wounds he sustained for me. The care fits our Lord and Savior.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 5: Reread John 19:38-42

Such reverence in Jesus’ burial. What a sight to see!

End Notes BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 5: Reread John 19:38-42

Normally, servants would prepare a body for death, but here these two wealthy men did. They washed Jesus’ body and ensured it was in pristine shape for burial.

The burial of Jesus fulfilled prophecy (Isaiah 53:9 ). It was proof Jesus was truly dead. His body would not decay (Psalm 16:10)

The burial allowed Jesus to conquer sin and death. As Jesus was in the tomb, he went to Hell to bring out the faithful to heaven (1 Peter 3:18-20 )

The tomb was Joseph’s, and it would be grand for a rich man as himself.

In Jewish custom, bodies were left in small tombs to decay. The bones would then be collected and put into ossuaries. The doors to the tombs would be heavy, so no one would disturb the bodies.

It was important that the tomb was empty so that no other theory or resurrection could take place except by the Hand of God.

Summary of John 19:38-42

Joseph of Arimathea asked for Jesus’ body. Along with Nicodemus, the two men wrapped Jesus’ body for burial in accordance with Jewish customs. They laid Jesus in a new tomb in a garden.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 4: John 19:38-42

9) Joseph of Arimathea was a secret disciple of Jesus and a member of the Council. He was a good and upright man who did not agree with Jesus’ death. Nicodemus was the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. He was a Pharisee who came to Jesus asking who he was. Jesus told him about being born of the Holy Spirit. He tried to defend Jesus to the Pharisees.

10a) They lost the chance to personally know Jesus and to bring others to him.

b) They risked excommunication from the church and their livelihood. They gained so much by worshipping Jesus this night as they buried him, including eternal life.

11a) I think many are afraid to give up control of their lives. Many are afraid to give up their sins and follow Jesus.

b) By giving Jesus the credit for my amazing life more.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 4: John 19:38-42

I love how these two men who had the means to bury Jesus stepped up and did so. They overcame their fear for their Savior. Wonderful!

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 3: John 19:34-37

by atozmom, posted in BSF John's Gospel: The Truth 2023/2024

Summary of John 19:34-37

The soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, fulfilling scripture that not one of his bones would be broken, and he would be pierced.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 3: John 19:34-37

6a) He was pierced and blood and water flowed from his body, which are physical parts of our bodies.

b) Because so many people say that Jesus never came in human form.

7) Jesus was without defect/sin. His blood was shed to cleanse the people of their sins. No bones were broken.

8a) He was pierced for our sins, and his wounds healed us and took away our sins.

b) Profoundly. It gives me immense awe of Jesus’ actions for my sins, and I praise him all the more.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 3: John 19:34-37

So much awe here — what Jesus did for us and how it was all planned from the beginning of time. Amazing!

End Notes BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 3: John 19:34-37

It is presumed the soldier was making sure Jesus was dead by piercing him.

John was an eye witness to Jesus’ death so that we may believe.

The fact that prophecy (Psalm 34:20) was fulfilled leads us to belief in Jesus.

The water may represent a new spiritual life poured out onto all believers. The blood is what makes atonement for our sins.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 2: John 19:31-33

by atozmom, posted in BSF John's Gospel: The Truth 2023/2024

Summary of John 19:31-33

The Jewish leaders wanted the bodies removed for the Sabbath, so the soldiers broke the legs of the other two, but not Jesus’s because he was already dead.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 2: John 19:31-33

3) If a body is left hanging, it would put the people hanging under God’s curse and desecrate the land.

4a) It’s pointless, really. They illegally crucified Jesus with a false trial and charges, so why follow the law now when they already broke the law?

b) To not be a hypocrite.

5) That he willingly died for my sins for me.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 2: John 19:31-33

Great lesson on obeying all of God’s laws, not just the ones you choose to obey.

End Notes BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 26, Day 2: John 19:31-33

The priests wanted the bodies removed to avoid polluting themselves and Passover. Normally, Rome let the bodies hang as a warning to others to not break the laws.

Breaking the legs would hasten the death of people because they would not be able to support themselves on the cross and would not be able to breathe.

This was even more torture of men already being tortured — having your legs broken.
