Jesus: No Bones Broken fulfilled
The New Testament Gospels describe and give the details of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, including the fact that no bones were broken, a fact that was predicted by several prophetic Old Testament scripture verses. The Roman soldiers broke the legs of the other two men who were being crucified in order to ensure that they completely dehydrated and died. The Jewish leaders did not want any bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath occurring on the following day, therefore they urged Pilate have the legs broken and the bodies taken down quicker. However, when the soldiers looked at Jesus, they noticed that he was already dead, so the soldiers did not break his legs, but one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, causing a sudden flow of blood and water. This fulfillment of prophetic scripture was recorded in John 19:31-37, which was predicted or symbolized by verses in Exodus 12:46, Numbers 9:11-12, Psalm 34:19-20 and Zechariah 12:10.
Exodus 12:46 explains a Passover meal restriction for meat preparation that is symbolic of the future Messiah:
...Do not break any of the bones.
Numbers 9:11-12 gives another Passover meal restriction for meat preparation that symbolizes the future Messiah:
...They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. 12 They must not leave any of it till morning or break any of its bones.
Psalm 34:20 says:
...he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.
Zechariah 12:10 says:
...They will look on the one they have pierced.
The accuracy of the Biblical scriptures is confirmed with the many prophetic writings contained in the Old Testament and the New Testament and any doubt that these scriptures are the Word of God should be erased when one examines these scriptures.
