Jesus said: "My soul is sorrowful to the point of death. Then he said: "Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Take this cup away from me, but not what I will but what you will ”.
Pilate then had Jesus taken away and scourged. (Jn 19, 1)
They dressed him up in purple, twisted some thorns into a crown and put it on him. They began saluting him with: “Hail, king of the Jews!” They struck his head with a reed and spat on him. (Cf. Mk 15, 17-19)
They took Jesus and carrying the Cross himself, he went out to what is called the Place of the Skull, in Hebrew, Golgotha. (Jn 19, 16 -17)
They crucified Jesus and the criminals there, one on his right, the other on his left. Then, Jesus said: "Father, forgive them, they know not what they do”. Then the veil of the Temple was torn down the middle and Jesus cried out in a loud voice: "Father, in your hands I commend my Spirit.” (Cf. Lk 23, 33-46)
