Why did Jesus say, “Woman, behold your son” on the cross?

Consider the powerful significance behind this moment from John 19:26-27, one of the seven last statements of Christ, and see how it points to something bigger than just family duty – the very heart of the family of God being formed right there at the crucifixion. What profound truth about care, responsibility, and spiritual connection was Jesus revealing in one of His final breaths? In this video, Pastor Nelson answers your question: What did Jesus mean when He said, “Woman, behold your son” on the cross?
