Thanks.. christine |
Bible Answer: hi Christine! if you read John, during the crucifixion, the guards came to break the legs of the crucified victims(probably to hasten their death). but when they came to Jesus and finding he was already dead, they just pierced his side, where blood and water flowed(water refers to the Holy Spirit). traditionally, crucifixion, means hanging the person on a cross with their hands nailed to the wood. this was prevalent in the Roman days. Again after Jesus rises from the dead, he appears to Thomas and says "put your fingers in my nail marks in the hand and feel my side". from this we know the Jesus was nailed in the cross and pierced in the side as well. it was also prophesied in the Old Testament days by the prophet "they looked upon the one they pierced" (i'm not sure which chapter and verse). you can ind all these in the Gospel of John starting from the crucifixion. i hope you know more about our brother and Lord Jesus Christ. vkey |
