• priests, scribes and Pharisees who had ordered
• the capture of Jesus.

• and fell three times. The soldiers asked Simon
• of Cyrene to help Jesus carry the cross after He
• had fallen the third time.

• nailed to the cross. Two criminals were

• me in paradise.

• foot of the cross, comforting Him. His spirit
• began to fail and He whispered a final prayer to
• the Father Father, into your hands I give my
• spirit. Then Jesus bowed His head and died.

• Jesus friends took His body down from the
• cross and wrapped it in clean linen. Then they
• carried the body away and brought it to a new
• tomb which had been cut into some rock. They
• rolled a big stone across the entrance to the
• tomb and went away.
