GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 27:27-38
[Eye witness accounts always differ in details. Authorities are very suspicious when they don’t.] 27 - Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium. [The quarters of the praetorian guard in the governor’s mansion. In roman occupation it was the custom to take over the palaces the rulers (king, etc.) lived in.]
They gathered the whole company of soldiers around him 28 and stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him. 29 They twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head and put a staff in his right hand. Then they knelt in front of him and mocked him. “Hail! king of the Jews!” 30 They spit on him. And they took the staff and struck him upon the head many times. 31 When they were done mocking him, they took off the robe and led him away to crucify him.
32 As they were going out, they met a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they made him carry the cross. 33 They came to a place called Golgotha (which means “place of the skull”). 34 There they offered Jesus wine to drink, mixed with gall [cholé - a bitter herb perhaps wormwood a poison, or myrrh for pain]. But after tasting it, he refused it. 35 As he was hanging there, they divided up his clothes by throwing lots. (We are chosen to be called now, during this brief lifetime, by a ‘lucky’ throw of the heavenly dice, imo.) 36 then sitting down, they kept watch. 37 Above his head they had carved the charge against him - This is Jesus, the King of the Jews. 38 Two rebels were crucified with him, one at his right and one at his left.

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ 2 Timothy 2:1-6 ~
1 - You then, my child [téknon – properly, a child; from commentary - figuratively anyone living in full dependence on the heavenly Father, i.e. fully, willingly relying upon the Lord in glad submission, this prompts God to transform them into His likeness] - be strengthened by the grace that is in Jesus, 2 and what you have heard from me, in the presence of many witnesses, entrust to others who are faithful and will be able to teach others also. 3 Suffer hardship and evil treatment as a good soldier of Christ. 4 A soldier doesn’t get entangled in civilian pursuits, because their aim is to please the one who enlisted them. 5 An athlete is not crowned unless they compete according to the rules. 6 It is the hard-working farmer who reaps the crops.
