The Greek word for "Jesus" is Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous), which is derived from the Hebrew name Yeshua, meaning "Yahweh is salvation." This highlights the central role of Jesus as the Savior in Christian theology. Throughout the Gospel of Mark, Jesus is portrayed as the suffering servant, fulfilling the prophecies of the Old Testament. This moment is the culmination of His earthly ministry, where He takes upon Himself the sins of the world.<p><b>let out a loud cry</b><br />The Greek word for "cry" is φωνή (phōnē), which can mean a sound, voice, or utterance. The "loud cry" signifies the intensity and significance of this moment. It is not merely a physical expression of pain but a profound spiritual declaration. This cry is often associated with Jesus' words, "It is finished" (<a href="/john/19-30.htm">John 19:30</a>), signifying the completion of His redemptive work. Historically, crucifixion was a brutal form of execution, and the loud cry underscores the agony and the weight of the moment.<p><b>and breathed His last</b><br />The phrase "breathed His last" is translated from the Greek word ἐξέπνευσεν (exepneusen), which means to expire or to give up the spirit. This indicates the moment of Jesus' physical death. In the Jewish understanding, breath is synonymous with life, as seen in <a href="/genesis/2-7.htm">Genesis 2:7</a>, where God breathes life into Adam. Jesus' death is not just a physical cessation but a profound theological event. It marks the moment when the sacrificial Lamb of God completes His mission to atone for humanity's sins. This act fulfills the prophecies of the suffering servant in <a href="/isaiah/53.htm">Isaiah 53</a> and opens the way for reconciliation between God and man.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/mark/15.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 37.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">And Jesus uttered a loud voice, and gave up the ghost</span>. The three synoptists all mention this cry, which appears to have been something different from the words which he uttered at or about the time of his death. It was evidently something supernatural, and was so regarded by the centurion who stood by; and who had no doubt been accustomed to scenes like these. Usually the voice fails the dying, more especially when the natural forces have been weakened by long agony, as in the case of our Lord. It seems, therefore, the right conclusion that he cried out, just before he expired, by that supernatural power which his Godhead supplied to him; and thus he showed that, although he had gone through all the pains which were sufficient in ordinary cases to produce death, yet that at length he did not die of necessity, but voluntarily, in accordance with what he had himself said, "No one taketh my life from me... I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again" (<a href="/john/10-18.htm">John 10:18</a>). Victor Antiochanus, in commenting upon this chapter, says, "By this action the Lord Jesus proved that he had his whole life, and his death, in his own free power." <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/mark/15-37.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">But</span><br /><span class="grk">δὲ</span> <span class="translit">(de)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunction<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_1161.htm">Strong's 1161: </a> </span><span class="str2">A primary particle; but, and, etc.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">Jesus</span><br /><span class="grk">Ἰησοῦς</span> <span class="translit">(Iēsous)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_2424.htm">Strong's 2424: </a> </span><span class="str2">Of Hebrew origin; Jesus, the name of our Lord and two other Israelites.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">let out</span><br /><span class="grk">ἀφεὶς</span> <span class="translit">(apheis)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb - Aorist Participle Active - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_863.htm">Strong's 863: </a> </span><span class="str2">From apo and hiemi; to send forth, in various applications.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">a loud cry</span><br /><span class="grk">φωνὴν</span> <span class="translit">(phōnēn)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - Accusative Feminine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_5456.htm">Strong's 5456: </a> </span><span class="str2">Probably akin to phaino through the idea of disclosure; a tone; by implication, an address, saying or language.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">[and] breathed His last.</span><br /><span class="grk">ἐξέπνευσεν</span> <span class="translit">(exepneusen)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb - Aorist Indicative Active - 3rd Person Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_1606.htm">Strong's 1606: </a> </span><span class="str2">(lit: I breathe out), I breathe my last, expire.
