AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 27:33 ¶ And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a Skull, [Mark 15:22-32; Luke 23:33-43; John 19:17-24] |
Bible Question: Where was Jesus cucified? Wasn't it in Jeruselum? Why were the Roman soldiers involved? Did Rome have jusisdition of a larger teritory? |
Bible Answer: Greetings BCollier, Matthew 27:33; Mark 15:22; Luke 23:33; John 19:17 Golgotha was the place in which Jesus was crucified; the Aramaic word meaning from "a skull": In three references (Matt. 27:33; Mark 15:22; John 19:17) it is interpreted to mean "the place of a skull." In Luke 23:33 the King James Version it is called "Calvary," but in the Revised Version (British and American) simply "The skull." From the New Testament we may gather that it was outside the city (Heb. 13:12), but close to it (John 19:20), apparently near some public thoroughfare (Matt. 27:39), coming from the country (Mark 15:21), was a spot visible, from some points, from afar (Mark 15:40; Luke 23:49).
