What does the Bible say about Jesus fulfilling scripture?

Throughout the crucifixion, Jesus ensured that scripture was fulfilled, indicating His sovereign control over every aspect of the event. For instance, John 19:28 mentions Him saying 'I thirst' specifically so that the scripture would be fulfilled. This act highlights that even in the midst of suffering and apparent defeat, Jesus was meticulously fulfilling the prophecies concerning Him. The soldiers, unwittingly participating in the fulfillment of scripture by casting lots for His garments, did not realize their actions aligned with what had been prophesied long before their time.
