John 19:34 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Forthwith there came out blood and water — It was strange, seeing he was dead, that blood should come out; more strange, that water also; and most strange of all, that both should come out immediately, at one time, and yet distinctly. It was pure and true water, as well as pure and true blood. The asseveration of the beholder and testifier of it, shows both the truth and greatness of the miracle and mystery.

John 19:34

34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
