The cross

He was arrested in the garden of Gethsemane, tried and condemned to die on a cross, outside the walls of Jerusalem, at Calvary. From the cross he forgave those who crucified him. He died on a Friday afternoon: Good Friday.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
