What details from (John 19:34 - 37) provide evidence to support that Jesus did not survive the crucifixion?

John 19:34-37 provides several details that support the belief that Jesus did not survive the crucifixion:

1. Piercing Jesus' Side: In verse 34, it is mentioned that one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear. This would have caused a significant wound, and it is unlikely that someone could survive such an injury without immediate and proper medical attention, which was not available at that time.

2. Blood and Water: The same verse also mentions that when Jesus' side was pierced, "at once there came out blood and water." This could be interpreted as a sign of death. In a medical context, the presence of both blood and water could suggest that the spear pierced the heart, causing blood and pericardial fluid (which can be described as 'water') to flow out.

3. Fulfillment of Scripture: Verses 36 and 37 refer to Old Testament prophecies that are fulfilled through these events. The fact that these prophecies were fulfilled is seen as further evidence that Jesus did indeed die on the cross.

4. No Broken Legs: In verse 36, it is mentioned that unlike the two criminals crucified alongside him, Jesus' legs were not broken. This was a common practice to hasten death on the cross. The fact that the soldiers did not break Jesus' legs suggests that they believed he was already dead.

These details together provide strong evidence to support the belief that Jesus did not survive the crucifixion.
