The Bill Was Paid In Full

 In "Tetelestai: The Meaning of ‘It Is Finished’," Chris Queen points out that after Christ drank the sour wine on the cross (in fulfillment of Psalm 69:21) He said what is, in the Greek, tetelestai (τετέλεσται), which is often translated as "it is finished." But, Queen goes on, this phrase doesn't merely mean that something is done. Rather, it was written on business documents and receipts in New Testament times to indicate that a bill or debt had been paid in full.
