The sixth, and next-to-last, cry of Jesus from the cross is the most important single cry in history. Seemingly defeated and about to die, Jesus knew that through his suffering and impending death he completed the act of redemption he came into the world to accomplish. With a single word in the Greek he declares his work finished, perfect, and forever completed. If you wonder about the crucifixion and death of Jesus, understanding this single word could not be more important.
