EISEGESIS: the interpretation of a text (as of the Bible) by reading into it one's own ideas, according to Merriam-Webster. When reading John 19:30 and reading "It is finished" to mean "The Law is finished" or "The sacrificial system is finished", that is doing eisegesis. There is nothing in the text, before or after, that shows Yeshua/Jesus referring to the Law or the sacrifices.

Some Bibles, like my KJV, will put Hebrews 10:1-14 as a reference to this verse. Which is interesting, because just a few verses later in verse 28, the author says that anyone who sets aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on two or three witnesses. Who are those witnesses? According to Deuteronomy 30:19: Heaven and Earth. Both of those are still here and we also have another confirmation of this in Matthew 5:18 where Yeshua says nothing from the Law will pass away until Heaven and Earth do. We know from Revelation, that isn't until the end of the Millennial reign.

Let the text speak for itself.
