In John 19:30, Jesus spoke one final word before giving up His spirit: “It is finished.”
The Greek word for it is tetelestai, which was used in legal and financial settings to mean paid in full. This meant that the full price for sin had been satisfied.
This ties directly to Isaiah 53, where the Messiah is described as the one who would bear the iniquity of us all. Jesus completed that work on the cross.
The curse of sin was broken, and the separation between God and man was removed.
