The seventh word is from Luke 23:46: Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.
Again, Jesus is talking directly to His Father. His use of the word “Father” is reminiscent of my reflection on the first word, so if you forgot what I said, just reread the first word.
The sixth word is from John 19:30: It is finished.
The fifth word is from John 19:28: I thirst.
The fourth word is from Matthew 27:46 & Mark 15:34: My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
The third word is from John 19:26–27: Woman, behold your son. Son, behold your mother.
This is all about Mary to me. I find Mary so powerful and impactful in such a quiet and elegant way. At the Feast of Cana, she tells Jesus to perform His first miracle. She exhibits a strength and finesse that are commendable.
The second word is from Luke 23:43: Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.
