According to the Gospel of John, the Roman soldiers did not break Jesus's legs, as they did to the two crucified thieves (breaking the legs hastened the onset of death), as Jesus was dead already. The soldiers affixed a sign above his head stating "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews" which, according to the Gospel of John, was in three languages (Hebrew, Latin, and Greek), and then divided his garments and cast lots for his seamless robe. and noon), until his death at the ninth hour, corresponding to about 3 p.m. According to the Gospel of Mark, he endured the torment of crucifixion from the third hour (between approximately 9 a.m. According to some translations of the original Greek, the thieves may have been bandits or Jewish rebels.

#ROMAN SOLDIER JESUS TRIAL#
All four Gospels conclude with an extended narrative of Jesus's arrest, initial trial at the Sanhedrin and final trial at Pilate's court, where Jesus is flogged, condemned to death, is led to the place of crucifixion initially carrying his cross before Roman soldiers induce Simon of Cyrene to carry it, and then Jesus is crucified, entombed, and resurrected from the dead. In the synoptic gospels, Jesus predicts his death in three separate places. There are other, more implicit references in the New Testament epistles. The earliest detailed accounts of the death of Jesus are contained in the four canonical gospels. Among the eyewitnesses named in the gospels are Mary Magdalene, Mary, mother of Jesus, Mary of Clopas, and Salome, often identified as the wife of Zebedee.Ĭollectively referred to as the Passion, Jesus's suffering and redemptive death by crucifixion are the central aspects of Christian theology concerning the doctrines of salvation and atonement. The Bible describes seven statements that Jesus made while he was on the cross, as well as several supernatural events that occurred. The Gospel of John also states that, after Jesus's death, one soldier (named in extra-Biblical tradition as Longinus) pierced his side with a spear to be certain that he had died, then blood and water gushed from the wound. They then divided his garments among themselves and cast lots for his seamless robe, according to the Gospel of John.
According to the Gospel of John ( John 19:20), this phrase was written in three languages (Hebrew, Latin, and Greek). During this time, the soldiers affixed a sign to the top of the cross, which read " Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews". He was then hung between two convicted thieves and, according to the Gospel of Mark, died by the 9th hour of the day (at around 3:00 p.m.). Jesus was stripped of his clothing and offered vinegar mixed with myrrh or gall (likely posca), to drink. In the canonical gospels, Jesus is arrested and tried by the Sanhedrin, and then by Pontius Pilate, who sentences him to flagellation and then hands him over to soldiers for crucifixion. There is no consensus among historians on the details. It is described in the four canonical gospels, referred to in the New Testament epistles, attested to by other ancient sources, and is considered an established historical event. The crucifixion of Jesus occurred in 1st-century Judaea, most likely in AD 30 or AD 33.
