The Crucifixion Matt. 27: 32-44
The soldiers took Jesus away and put a purple cloth on him. They tortured him by putting a crown of thorns on his head. They mocked him by saluting him: “Hail King of the Jews”. They beat him and spat upon him. After maltreating him, they took away the purple cloth and led him away to be crucified. On the way, they met Simon of Cyrene and forced him to help Jesus carry the heavy cross. Simon helped him, till they came to Golgotha (the place of skull), the place of crucifixion.
At Golgotha, the soldiers gave Jesus wine mixed with gall (a concoction) to drink. But when he tasted it, he did not like it, so he refused to drink it. The concoction was meant to reduce the pain that he might suffer after he had been nailed to the cross.
The soldiers crucified Jesus by laying him on the cross and hammering nails into his hands and feet.
