  • me as well but he is such a good actor.

  • I would've posted bail to get Jesus out.

    He probably would've said:

    "Thanks, very nice of you, young stranger and I have to refuse as it is not part of my Father's plan. Thanks anyway!"

  • @amazingdany, Jesus would say to you if you paid bail, "Let me do what God sent me here for. I have to suffer on the cross for you, to take your sins opon myself."

  • And look at ´this Child as your Own ... Let an ear hear...

  • @feckintoad (cont'd) Of course, with the impalement aspect it no longer meets the modern, that is, Christian definition of crucifixion which is merely a nailing to a cross. And if you show Jesus impaled the screams will never stop reaching the limits of the Universe. Crazy world...

  • @Moseukimob "No more" is essentially the same as "It is finished."

  • @feckintoad Exactly. Whether it was an animal horn or a stake shaped like one or even like an actual dildo, it was the impalement aspect that was mandatory in any crucifixion back then. It was actually the stake that the Romans called the name 'crux', from which the T-gallows that supported it got its name... and in time became the Cross.

  • there would also have been masses of flies..attracted by the blood ,vomit, urine and faeces especially in the heat of the middle east.. It would have been a very stinking spectacle to behold. Birds would also attempt to peck at the bodies. Flies eggs would turn to maggots within 2 days in the week long exposure.. Wild dogs would also feed on the lower extremeties.

  • @EdM021 The condemded would have been nailed up completely naked to enhance the shame.. The anus would have been impaled on an animal horn or nail connected to the stipes..this would inflict more pain and humililiation as well as to prolong life to the full extent of the punishment.

  • @tarynfire They had a horizontal 'peg' for the actors to sit on and some kind of harness or straps under the loincloths to keep them from sliding forward and falling off. Without these the actors would bend forward like an archery bow and they would need ropes at the wrists and ankles to keep from falling off. Ask cruxguy 3 posts above yours he knows this for a fact.

    The Romans would strip the crucified naked and seat them astride an upright stake. Intolerably painful and obscene.
