Hello, I hope I am posting in the right place:
I was thinking of the days of creations and realised Jesus died on the 6th day (when Adam was created on the 6th day). I was looking around the internet and found this: http://www.atonementspringvalley.org/uploads/2/6/5/3/2653138/2014_good_friday--jn_19-17-30.pdf (hope the link works)
ATTN: I am not getting into a 7th day-rest debate here, am rather concentrating on the way the writer parallels God's finished work at creation and Jesus' work finished at the crucifixion.
I've also noted that the word "complete" in Genesis 2:1 (NIV/ NLT), in Strong's Concordance defines as "finished". In John 19:30 Jesus says "It is finished". It's just a parallel I've never did before.
I just found it beautiful. God's Word and work is beautiful indeed!
Anyone ever saw Jesus' crucifixion that way?
