John 19:16 -22


So they took charge of Jesus, and carrying the cross himself, he went out to what is called the Place of the Skull, that is called Golgotha in Aramaic, where they crucified him, and with him two others on either side, Jesus in the middle. 

Pilate also wrote a notice and he put it on the cross. It was written: Jesus, from Nazareth, the King of the Jews.’ Many of the Jews read this notice, because the place where Jesus was crucified  was near the city. And it was written  in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: ‘Do not leave it written “The King of the Jews” but “He said ‘I am the King of the Jews.’” Pilate answered ‘What I have written, I have written.’

Thank you, dear Jesus,
for all you have given me,
for all you have taken away from me,
for all you have left me.

Thomas More (c.1478-1535)
