John 15:25

Context
15:25 Now this happened 1  to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without reason.’ 2 

John 19:36

Context
19:36 For these things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled, “Not a bone of his will be broken.” 3 

1 tn The words “this happened” are not in the Greek text but are supplied to complete an ellipsis.

2 sn A quotation from Ps 35:19 and Ps 69:4. As a technical term law (νόμος, nomos) is usually restricted to the Pentateuch (the first five books of the OT), but here it must have a broader reference, since the quotation is from Ps 35:19 or Ps 69:4. The latter is the more likely source for the quoted words, since it is cited elsewhere in John’s Gospel (2:17 and 19:29, in both instances in contexts associated with Jesus’ suffering and death).

3 sn A quotation from Exod 12:46, Num 9:12, and Ps 34:20. A number of different OT passages lie behind this quotation: Exod 12:10 LXX, Exod 12:46, Num 9:12, or Ps 34:20. Of these, the first is the closest in form to the quotation here. The first three are all more likely candidates than the last, since the first three all deal with descriptions of the Passover lamb.
