Verse 37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice. If this statement contained all the information upon this subject communicated to us, we might have supposed that the exclamation was one of pain,--the last, expiring cry. But, as John tells us that the expression uttered was, "It is finished," and as Luke 23:46 adds also that with a loud voice he commended his spirit into the hands of God, the dying exclamation seems to assume the character of an expression of triumphant joy that the great and glorious consummation had at last arrived.
