In Bible class I learned about the last few words of Jesus before he died on the cross. Jesus said seven phrases before he died. He said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they’re doing.” Meaning that he people who were hurting him and trying to kill him should still go to heaven. Another thing he said was, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.” Jesus is saying to the people that no matter what they are doing, they will be forgiven and into heaven. Another phrase Jesus said was, “Dear woman, here is you son.” This phrase is saying that Jesus’ mother (Mary) is watching him die and will no longer have a son. This makes Jesus sad because his dear mother is watching her own son suffer. He also says, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Jesus is saying that God has abandoned him. Jesus also said, “I am thirsty.” after he drank he said, “It is finished.” and he died after saying that.
