“For dogs have surrounded Me; the congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me. They pierced My hands and My feet;…they divide My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.” Psalm 22:16, 18
This verse, found in the Zabur, was written by David nearly 1000 years before the words of these verses actually happened to Isa Al-Masih. David may have not known that Allah was inspiring him to write about Isa Al-Masih, but his words accurately describe what happened:
"Os soldados, pois, quando crucificaram Jesus, tomaram-lhe as vestes e fizeram quatro partes, para cada soldado uma parte; e pegaram também a túnica. A túnica, porém, era sem costura, toda tecida de alto a baixo. Disseram, pois, uns aos outros: Não a rasguemos, mas lancemos sortes sobre ela para ver a quem caberá — para se cumprir a Escritura: Repartiram entre si as minhas vestes e sobre a minha túnica lançaram sortes. Assim, pois, o fizeram os soldados." (João 19:23-24).
