"and they crucified him...
and the inscription of the charge against him read,
THE KING OF THE JEWS."

I am particular concerned that the modern translations no longer use the words "it is consumated" and say "it is finished". There are several other latin words that Jerome could have used for "finished" . He chose "consummatum" for a reason. No time or room to write about here.
