THE CRUCIFIXION

LUCAS 23 33 to 38

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.

Jesus said. Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.

And they divided up his clothes by casting lots. The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him. 

They said: He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.

The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar and said: If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.

There was a written notice above him, which read: «THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS».
