1 | Simon of Cyrene | Matt 27:32 | prayon | 5010 | ||
We are told that Simon of Cyrene was compelled to carry the cross for Jesus on the way to Golgatha. I believe that this must of made a strong impact on him because Romans 16:13 states that Paul mentions his sons, Rufus and Alexander, with warm affection. My question is what else do we know about him? Why was he in Jerusalem at that time? Was this his first exposure to Christ or had he heard his message before? Had he been in the crowd yelling "Crucify him"? | ||||||
2 | Simon of Cyrene | Matt 27:32 | Searcher56 | 5074 | ||
Nothing in the Bible ... He was from Cyerene, in Africa. He may of been a Jew, and had to be there because of the Passover. Yes, it could of never been exposed to Christ before ... and could of been yelling "Crucify Him", or may not been able to get into the city because of the crowd. He may of gone to Rome with his sons. All three sons of Noah were part of this scene. The son Shem - Christ, Japheth - the soldiers and Ham - Simon. |

Steve, Thank you for your reply. I had no idea about Noahs sons. That was very interesting! I love Bible trivia like that! I'll be interested in more if you want to send them to me. (see my bio). Thanks, prayon | ||||||
