SECT. VI. Of Christ's crucifying, with its appendices.
About Eleven, they prepare with all speed for the execution: in the revolution of this hour we may observe these several passages. As 1 Their taking off the robe, and clothing him again with his own raiment. 2. Their leading him away from Gabbatha to Golgotha. 3. His bearing the Cross with Simon's help to bear it after him. 4. His comforting the women who followed weeping after him as he went. 5. Their giving him Vinegar to drink mingled with gall. 6. Their crucifying, or fastening him on the Cross, whereon he dyed.
ABout Eleven, they prepare with all speed for the execution: in the revolution of this hour we may observe these several passages. As 1 Their taking off the robe, and cloathing him again with his own rayment. 2. Their leading him away from Gabbatha to Golgotha. 3. His bearing the Cross with Simon's help to bear it after him. 4. His comforting the women who followed weeping after him as he went. 5. Their giving him Vinegar to drink mingled with gall. 6. Their crucifying, or fastening him on the Cross, whereon he dyed.
1. The Evangelist tells us, They took the robe off from him, 1and put his own raiment on him; Origen observes, They took off his robes, but they took not off his Crown of Thorns; what served their interest, they pursued still, but nothing of mitigation or mercy to the afflicted Son of Man. It is supposed this small business could not be done without great pain; after his sore whipping his blood congealed, and by that means stuck to his scarlet mantle; so that in pulling off the robe, and putting on his own raiment, there could not but be a renewing of his wounds.
