In these verses, we see the Roman soldiers closer to the most crucial part of all of human history than anybody else, and they are gambling for part of His inner tunic. I am reminded how close some people can be to the gospel, hearing it every Sunday, hearing it on the radio, seeing it on TV, and yet totally miss the point. Instead of bending the knee towards the King lifted up, they are distracted by silly things. How sad to be so close to the cross and still miss the main point!
