Crucifixion

Many paintings show different techniques than others. Tempera painting started out and was popular many years ago during the 14th century. Tempera consists of egg combined with a wet paste of ground pigment. This technique dries up very fast but the artist did use it more than oil painting. This technique has an ability to last for many years (Kleiner,2016, p. 559). Carlo Crivelli made The Crucifixion painting around 1487. This painting is 75 x 55.2 cm. By looking at the painting, I can infer that it was done for religious proposes. The famous bible scene was when Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross with his mother and followers on the side looking up at him. This is what we can see in this painting. It’s Jesus Christ on the cross. This…

The physical abuse, mental abuse and maltreatment distributed out by the Jews and the Romans, as well as the lack of food, water, and sleep, also contributed to His generally weakened state. Therefore, even before the actual crucifixion, Jesus' physical condition was at least serious and possibly critical. With the knowledge of both anatomy and ancient crucifixion practices, one may form the option, that this was indeed a slow agonizing execution. Our Lord and Savior’s contributing cause of…

By this time it was about noon, and darkness fell across the whole land until 3:00. The light from the sun was gone. And suddenly, the curtain of the sanctuary was torn down the middle. Then Jesus shouted, “Father, I entrust my spirit into your hands!” And with those words he breathed his last. And so it began, three days of, fear, doubt, and hopelessness, as all the earth and all of heaven waited in anticipation. Around this time, we ways think about the crucifixion and the resurrection, but…

Crucifixion was a method of capital punishment practiced during Biblical times “particularly among the Persians, Seleucids, Carthaginians, and Romans from about the 6th century b.c.e to the 4th century c.e.” (The Editors). It “was a public punishment visited upon rebels and slaves” (Harrington, p. 41). The most tragic, and the most meaningful, crucifixion to Christians was the one of Jesus Christ. “Under the Roman governor or prefect Pontius Pilate, Jesus was executed by crucifixion as a…

Dream of the Rood allows the audience to remember the story of the crucifixion and how it made them feel. The emphasis is on the cross and the loyalty is gives to Christ. To connect with his audience, the narrator breaks his dream into three parts. To get the full effect, we must remember how the story of the crucifixion made us feel. Dream of the Rood is similar to Christian George Stevens’ The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965) because both show commitment to the cross. The GSET takes the most…

context rather than the legitimacy of the miracles supposedly performed through these people. Proving or disproving whether Jesus existed or whether he performed or endured the actions for which he has become famous is not the focus of the film but, instead, his social status is the main subject of question, for example, whether or not he was a poor carpenter who lived in a community isolated from urban culture, and whether or not his crucifixion was a spectacle witnessed by a large multitude.…

According to the Bible, Christians believe Jesus died by crucifixion. However, according to the Quran, Muslims believe Jesus did not die by crucifixion. Instead, Muslims believe Jesus’ enemies planned to crucify him, but God’s saved Jesus and brought him up to him. In addition, if Jesus died by crucifixion, then Islam is false; but if Jesus did not die by crucifixion, then Christianity is false. Furthermore, after watching the debate, I think Jesus died by crucifixion because there are early…

Therefore, Jerusalem can be the city with many different beliefs, cultures and products. For example, Virgin and Child Enthroned and the Crucifixion painting, and the wool material, Piece of Carpet with Geometric Design, shows that Jerusalem is a significant city of the Silk Road. The painting, Virgin and Child Enthroned and the Crucifixion, was painted around ca. 1275-85 in Acre, Israel. In Virgin and Child Enthroned,…

In my opinion the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most important event in the history of humanity. And why is that, because it allows everybody who has accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior to have everlasting life. On December 25, A.D. God sent his one and only son, in his image, to spread his word and teach his truths. Jesus performed miracles such as making the blind see and helping the lame to walk. He performed such miracles as feeding five thousand people by…

The Crucifixion of Jesus The crucifixion of Jesus Christ is recorded in four different books of the New Testament; Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The four of these stories are the same and very different at the same time, each telling generally the same story with differences and focus on different aspects of each. Of the four the telling that speaks the most to me falls between the telling by Matthew and the telling of Luke but after a second reading and more reflection the story that really…
