After Jesus died on the cross, what did the soldiers do to visually confirm His death?

Correct Answer

D) They pierced His side with a spear.

According to the Gospel of John 19:31-34, after Jesus had already died on the cross, the soldiers came to break the legs of the crucified men to hasten their deaths. But when they came to Jesus, they saw that He was already dead, so they did not break His legs - fulfilling the prophecy that not one of His bones would be broken (Exodus 12:46, Psalm 34:20).
