His final moment..

"After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, "I am thirsty."
A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop & brought it up to His mouth. Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" & He bowed His head & gave up His spirit." (John 19:28-30)


At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "ELOI, ELOI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" which is translated, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?"
When some of the bystanders heard it, they began saying, "Behold, He is calling for Elijah."
Someone ran & filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed, & gave Him a drink, saying, "Let us see whether Elijah will come to take Him down."
& Jesus uttered a loud cry, & breathed His last.
& the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.
When the centurion, who was standing right in front of Him, saw the way He breathed His last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!" (Mark 15:34-37)
