Monday, October 7 - Lunes 7 de octubre The assembly of evildoers themselves have enclosed me. Like a lion they are at my hands and my feet.—Ps. 22:16. Faithful to Death 12 Aspects of the Messiah’s impalement were foretold. “The assembly of evildoers themselves have enclosed me,” said the psalmist David. “Like a lion they are at my hands and my feet.” (Ps. 22:16) Reporting an event well-known to Bible readers, the Gospel writer Mark states: “It was now the third hour [about nine o’clock in the morning], and they impaled him.” (Mark 15:25) It had also been foretold that the Messiah would be numbered with sinners. “He poured out his soul to the very death,” wrote Isaiah, “and it was with the transgressors that he was counted in.” (Isa. 53:12) So it was that “two robbers were impaled with [Jesus], one on his right and one on his left.”—Matt. 27:38. Psalm 22:16 For dogs have surrounded me; The assembly of evildoers themselves have enclosed me. Like a lion [they are at] my hands and my feet.Mark 15:25 It was now the third hour, and they impaled him.Isaiah 53:12 For that reason I shall deal him a portion among the many, and it will be with the mighty ones that he will apportion the spoil, due to the fact that he poured out his soul to the very death, and it was with the transgressors that he was counted in; and he himself carried the very sin of many people, and for the transgressors he proceeded to interpose.Matthew 27:38 Then two robbers were impaled with him, one on his right and one on his left. 14 Lots were to be cast for the Messiah’s clothing. “They apportion my garments among themselves,” wrote the psalmist, “and upon my clothing they cast lots.” (Ps. 22:18) That is what occurred, for “when [the Roman soldiers] had impaled [Jesus] they distributed his outer garments by casting lots.”—Matt. 27:35; read John 19:23, 24. Psalm 22:18 They apportion my garments among themselves, And upon my clothing they cast lots.Matthew 27:35 When they had impaled him they distributed his outer garments by casting lots,John 19:23, 24 Now when the soldiers had impaled Jesus, they took his outer garments and made four parts, for each soldier a part, and the inner garment. But the inner garment was without a seam, being woven from the top throughout its length. 24 Therefore they said to one another: “Let us not tear it, but let us determine by lots over it whose it will be.” This was that the scripture might be fulfilled: “They apportioned my outer garments among themselves, and upon my apparel they cast lots.” And so the soldiers really did these things. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lunes 7 de octubre La asamblea de malhechores mismos me ha circundado. Como un león acometen mis manos y mis pies (Sal. 22:16). Fiel hasta la muerte 12 Sería clavado de pies y manos en un madero como un delincuente. El Mesías vio cómo se hacían realidad en su caso estas palabras de David: “La asamblea de malhechores mismos me ha circundado. Como un león acometen mis manos y mis pies” (Sal. 22:16). Los lectores de la Biblia conocen muy bien los sucesos que cumplieron estas palabras. El evangelista Marcos relata: “Era ya la hora tercera [o sea, como las nueve de la mañana], y lo fijaron en el madero” (Mar. 15:25). Además, una profecía de Isaías indicó que el Mesías sería incluido entre los pecadores: “Derramó su alma hasta la mismísima muerte, y con los transgresores fue contado” (Isa. 53:12). En conformidad con esta indicación de las Escrituras, “fueron fijados en maderos con [Jesús] dos salteadores, uno a su derecha y uno a su izquierda” (Mat. 27:38). Salmo 22:16 Porque perros me han cercado; la asamblea de malhechores mismos me ha circundado. Como un león [acometen] mis manos y mis pies. Marcos 15:25 Era ya la hora tercera, y lo fijaron en el madero. Isaías 53:12 Por esa razón le daré una porción entre los muchos, y será con los poderosos con quienes él repartirá proporcionalmente el despojo, debido a que derramó su alma hasta la mismísima muerte, y con los transgresores fue contado; y él mismo llevó el mismísimo pecado de muchas personas, y por los transgresores procedió a interponerse. Mateo 27:38 Entonces fueron fijados en maderos con él dos salteadores, uno a su derecha y uno a su izquierda. 14 Sortearían su ropa. David dijo: “Reparten entre sí mis prendas de vestir, y sobre mi ropa echan suertes” (Sal. 22:18). ¿Cómo se cumplieron estas palabras en Cristo? “Cuando [los soldados romanos] lo hubieron fijado en el madero, repartieron sus prendas de vestir exteriores echando suertes.” (Mat. 27:35; léase Juan 19:23, 24.) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
