The Jews therefore, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, since it was Preparation (for it was the high day of that Sabbath), they besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and they might be remove

The soldiers therefore came, and indeed broke the legs of the first, and of the other man who was crucified with him.

But having come to Jesus, when they saw him now having died, they did not break his legs.
