The Crucifixion

The Crucifixion refers to the execution of Jesus Christ by the Romans around 30-33 AD. He was sentenced to die by a method called crucifixion, involving nailing or tying him to a wooden cross, which was a common form of capital punishment at the time. This event is central to Christian belief, symbolizing Jesus’ sacrifice for humanity’s sins and his death following a series of religious and political conflicts. Christians believe that Jesus’ crucifixion, followed by his resurrection, offers hope for forgiveness, eternal life, and reconciliation with God.
