MATTHEW 27:35 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.”
And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots. The crucifixion — narrated in a single subordinate clause — and the division of the garments by casting lots: the Psalm 22:18 fulfillment (they divided my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing) is the immediate application of the Psalm of the righteous sufferer to the crucifixion scene.
