Jesus makes seven statements while He was on the cross. They are recorded across the different gospels and not all seven are found in a single gospel record. Why that is the case can be several reasons. It could be based on where the person was standing and what they heard.

It also could be that some statements were the most important to the intended audience of the respective gospel and that is why the writer only included those to emphasize them.
We don’t know the specifics but the good news is we have the seven statements. In the Bible, the number seven represents fullness or completeness. I’m thankful for a completed work of redemption and salvation!…
