The
Crucifixion
(Location:
Mount Calvary, Jerusalem In Judea)
MATTHEW
27:
33 They came to a place called Golgotha (which means The Place of the
Skull). 34 There they offered Jesus wine to
drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink
it. 35 When they had crucified Him, they
divided up His clothes by casting lots. 36 And
sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 Above
His head they placed the written charge against Him: ~This is
Jesus, the King of the Jews~.
MARK
15:
22 They
brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means The Place
of the Skull). 23 Then they offered Him wine
mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it. 24 And
they crucified Him. Dividing up His clothes, they cast lots to see
what each would get. 25 It was the third hour
when they crucified Him. 26 The written notice
of the charge against Him read: ~The King of the Jews~.
27 They crucified two robbers with Him,
one on His right and one on His left. 28
And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “And
He was numbered with the transgressors”.
LUKE
23:
32 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with Him to be
executed. 33 When they came to the place called
the Skull, there they crucified Him, along with the criminals--one
on His right, the other on His left. 34 Jesus
said, "Father,
forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up His clothes by casting lots.
JOHN
19: 17 Carrying His own Cross, He went out to the place of the
Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 Here
they crucified Him, and with Him two others--one on each side and
Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilate
had a notice prepared and fastened to the Cross. It read: ~Jesus
of Nazareth, ~the King of the Jews~. 20 Many of
the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified
was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and
Greek. 21 The chief priests of the Jews
protested to Pilate, "Do not write 'The King of the Jews,'
but that this man claimed to be King of the Jews." 22 Pilate
answered, "What I have written, I have written." 23 When
the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took His clothes, dividing them
into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment
remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top
to bottom. 24 "Let's not tear it,"
they said to one another. "Let's decide by lot who will get
it." This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled
which said, "They divided my garments among them and cast
lots for my clothing." 25 So this is what
the soldiers did.
