Mark 15:24 — Community Reflections

MARK 15:24 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 1

“And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.”

And they crucified him. Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots to see what each would get — the crucifixion is stated in three words in the Greek (kai staurōsantes auton). The clothing division is the fulfillment of Psalm 22:18 (they divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment). The soldiers' mundane activity — dividing the condemned man's possessions — enacts the prophetic script.
