"...I Commend My Spirit"
Precious friends, for your Edification and Encouragement In Christ:
"Jesus...Cried With A Loud Voice"
“And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, He said, Father, into Thy hands I commend My spirit: and
having said thus, He gave up the ghost” (Luke 23:46). On the cross, the Lord “cried with a loud voice”
when He said, “It is finished” (John 19:30). The work of redemption was complete. The penalty for sin
was paid in full.
The Greek words for “loud voice” are megas and phone. These two Greek words together give us our
English word megaphone. Like a megaphone, the Lord’s words, “It is finished,” were loud, clearly heard,
and traveled for a distance, even throughout time and into eternity.
“It is finished” was a cry of completion and ultimate victory. The same combination of megas and phone is
used in Revelation to refer to the praise from the thousands upon thousands of angels who worship the
Lord around the throne in heaven (Rev. 5:11), “Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing” (v. 12). For
what Christ did for us in paying our sin debt in full, He is worthy to be worshipped with a loud voice of praise
throughout eternity..." (K Sadler)

Amen.
