THE CLIMB TO CALVARY
Meditations on The Seven Last Words of Christ
WEDNESDAY: The Third Words
“When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, ‘Woman, behold thy son!’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.” (John 19:26-27).
We now learn that Jesus’ mother is witnessing her own son’s six-hour execution.
