John19:36

36 For these things were done, that the scripture might be fulfilled , A bone of him shall not be broken .

Nor was there any thing of this, but in fulfilling of the Scripture; for it was Gods Law about the Passover, Exod. 12.46. Num. 9.12. concerning the Paschal Lamb, (which was a Type of Christ, Chap. 1.29. 1 Cor. 5.7.) that a bone of it should not be broken. So as by this breaking no bone of Christs body, they might have understood, that he was figured out by the Paschal Lamb.

Marginal references: Psal. 34.20.
