The Last 7 Words Of Jesus



I know for sure we have studied at school about the Seven Last Words of Jesus on the Cross before he died. Sadly, I don't remember any of them by now. I kept on thinking it was exactly "7 words" but when I made a research, it was actually 7 sentences. 

I badly need to refresh myself about this Last 7 Words of Jesus. So here it is. 

THE FIRST WORD

"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do."
Gospel of Luke 23:34

THE SECOND WORD

"Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
Gospel of Luke 23:43

THE THIRD WORD

"Jesus said to his mother: "Woman, this is your son."
Then he said to the disciple: "This is your mother."
Gospel of John 19:26-27

THE FOURTH WORD

"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34

THE FIFTH WORD

"I thirst."
Gospel of John 19:28

THE SIXTH WORD

They put a sponge soaked in wine on a sprig of hyssop and put it up to his mouth.
When Jesus had received the wine, he said, "It is finished;"
and he bowed his head and handed over the spirit.
Gospel of John 19:29-30

THE SEVENTH WORD

Jesus cried out in a loud voice,
"Father, into your hands I commend my spirit."
Gospel of Luke 23:46
