      The Messiah was murdered. IF somebody is murdered ..is that considered a self sacrifice? He did not want to die. That's why Jesus prayed to ask the father to forfeit his death. If the Messiah suppose to fulfill all the "prophecies " predicted about him in the Old Testament as God himself inspired the prophets to predict the coming of the Messiah...
      especially his death and resurrection. Where in the Bible in the OT says
      that he will be crucified and not murdered hang on a tree? Was Jesus
      judged according to the Jewish Law to fulfill the messianic prophecies
      or Roman Law which was death on a cross? This video will give you the
      answer according to the prophecies and explained why if you watch the
      whole thing.

    While praying the rosary, meditation on the scourging.......I suddenly envisioned that I was the one who the whipping Jesus and then He looked up at me.........
    I cried cause that look He gave me..........I can only describe as I saw what I believe is what the phrase "Father, forgive him, for he knows not what he does" looks like
    You don't ever want to see that
    Many of my protestant friends say that I'm crucifying Jesus every time I wear my crucifix. I tell them that every single sin I continue to do, mortal or venial, that I am doing just that. So I have my crucifix to see what I do not want to see.........what He went thru because of me and that look. They say they don't need to be reminded of that. I say some people truly need to see it, to truly understand, though I don't wish them too
    How can I, or anyone, say I love you Jesus, and then commit a sin.
    No you don't love Him
    Cause if you did........you would do everything He asked of you, without fail.......because you truly love Him
    Peace be with you

    Crucifixion was a cruel, ugly, and dreadful punishment indeed during ancient times, as was scourging, which was uglier and more excruciatingly painful. I could never dare to imagine even inflicting this horrible form of punishment on anyone, much less undergoing it myself.

    Good video. I'd also note there was a humiliation factor at play. Unlike how portrayed in movies, crucifixion involved a lot of bobbing up and down; up to breathe, down to rest (as much as possible). When suspended by arms in this manner, the victim can't breathe at the bottom (that's why the step normally is placed there, and why someone with broken legs would die in a minute or two vice hours). So not only excruciating, but everyone who is watching you die also is seeing you bob up and down just to breathe. (Don't get me wrong if I was making a movie about Christ, I wouldn't show this, either.)

      Oh, it gets even worse. You were hanged completely naked and a short horn-shaped stake or _stipes/acuta-crux/palus/cornu_ was placed strategically beneath you so that on your descent it pierced the anus. This is the sort of execution Origen envisioned in his phrase, _mors turpissima crucis_ (the utterly vile death of the cross). It's in the writings of several ancients and Antenicene Church Fathers and it's in a few pieces of commoner epigraphy if you know what to look for and know where to look.

      The humiliation factor that the Romans incorporated into the crucifixion process began right at the outset with the scourging of the condemned. For this the condemned were stripped completely naked. In addition to the dreadful physical pain of the scourging, the condemned was also subjected to humiliating mockery that was both verbally and physically sexuually abusive. Some authorities also contend that, entirely naked in a local jail or barracks for their scourging, condemned were sometimes sodomised by soldiers ( or vaginally raped in the case of women condemned to death by crucifixion).
      Having been stripped for scourging, the condemned now remained stark-naked as they ran the guantlet of being paraded through jeering crowds to the place of execution. Bleeding from wounds inflicted by their scourging and with their bared genitals on public display, the condemned now suffered mockery, ridicule, verbal and physical sexual abuse from crowds for whom this was all a free public entertainment.
      Once at the place of execution the naked prisoner would be nailed or tied to the cross to begin their agonisingly protracted death stripped totally of every ounce of personal dignity. If crucified on an eye level cross, where they were virtually at the same level as onlookers, then it is suggested the condemned were frequently subjected to ongoing abuse even as they suffered the excruciating physical agony of crucifixion. The Romans fully intended crucifixion to be both an agonising death and a horrendously humiliating one that utterly degraded the condemned; they succeeded on both counts.

    Some theologians question whether God is the Supreme child beater and ask whether He could have arranged for a less violent form of death for his son. Dr. Pitre here -- perhaps unintentionally -- provides a partial answer (it was Roman cruelty). But is there a more direct answer to the question: why did Jesus have to suffer so ignominiously to atone for the sins of mankind?

  • @victcol7

    the reason why Our Lord Sweated blood in the garden of Gethsemane , he was well aware about the torture of his fate.He was thirty something,..He could have said to Pilate."yes I was wrong" or to the Jews who judged Him first. But He did not budge. His immensity of His Love, and the Cross represents His divine Love, as He saw us, yes, you and me, down the centuries and all our transgressions howsoever bad, will never be counted, any suggestion of hell or even purgatory to repentant catholic diminishes His sacrifice and His mission.

      Both thieves would have suffered protracted agony as the nails accomplished their gruesome work.

The faces of both thieves would have been contorted in unbearable pain and their naked bodies shuddering and writhing.

      According to who? If you are talking about a "pacifist" Jesus, created by clever Flavian political strategists, in order to create a docile citizenry, more easy to govern in ancient Rome, I believe from a book by Joe Atwill, imo that is one example of a conspiracy "theory" written by someone who researches history to find the conspiracies, and who got too carried away with his game of connecting dots. I do admire his more contemporary analyses, but in the first century there is not enough documented history to confirm this one, and imo the writers of the NT are much more credible than Mr. Atwill.

      And worse, either penetrated by an _acuta crux_ or at the very least seated astride a stout dowel that passed between the legs as a concession to the Jews. Either way it was a cruel and utterly humiliating mimicry of male on male sex. 👿 Early Church Fathers believed it was the former. Therefore it is no accident that Origen called it the _mors turpissima crucis_ (the most morally polluted death of the cross).
