CSB much better than NIV on John 19:31 It was the day of Preparation and: NIV ...the next day was to be a special Sabbath CSB: ...that Sabbath was a special day [footnote: lit. great] Klink's commentary: "this truly was the great day"... not "Good Friday" but "Great Friday"

“For the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.” Middlemarch

Today's the day I learnt that "in our behalf" is a phrase in its own right, and has a meaning distinct from "on our behalf" in behalf of = to the benefit of someone on behalf of - in the place or/representing someone. So, happily, the Lord works on our behalf in our behalf.

Augustine on Jesus' arrest in John 18 They, verily, in their mad rage, sought for Him to put Him to death; but He, too, in giving Himself to death, was seeking for us.

Christianity is by far the most scattered, spread, globally distributed major world religion. That is a powerful apologetic pointing to our global, polyphonic, universal creator God.
