S3-E11-John 19:16-30-Jesus is crucified for mankind's sins

Renewing Your Mind with the Word of God Podcast

In this episode, we continue our study of chapter 19 out of the Book of John; specifically, verses 16-30. Jesus is crucified after Pilate gives the order to crucify Him to keep the peace with the Jewish religious leaders and the mob they had gathered. Jesus was made to carry his own cross, most likely just the horizontal beam, through the city to the Place of the Skull (in Hebrew, Golgotha). There, the vertical post would have already been fixed permanently in the ground. This made it much faster and easier to place the victim on the "cross." There, they nailed Jesus to the cross. Two others were crucified with him, one on either side, with Jesus between them. And Pilate posted a sign on the cross that read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."-which He is. But the Jewish religious leaders didn't like the sign because they didn't consider Jesus their king. So, they asked Pilate to change it, but he wouldn't. We see the Roman soldiers who carried out the crucifixion divide and gamble for Jesus' clothes, as Jesus most likely was crucified naked as most were. After telling John to take care of His mother, Jesus said He was thirty. They gave Him some sour wine to drink, then Jesus said, "It is finished!" Then Jesus bowed His head and freely gave up His spirit. Jesus died for our sins.
