Luke 23:26-43 "The Way to Paradise"
But I want you to focus on Jesus…He was already in a weakened state before he before he was brought to Pilate…because He had suffered a beating at the hands of the temple guards.
Then Pilate sent Him to be scourged within an inch of His life…the blood loss would have been significant…enough to weaken Him.
There were many who did not survive…the beating the Romans would inflict…
If you have seen the Passion of the Christ by Mel Gibson…then you have watched the scene where they secure Jesus to a post and beat Him with whips…
That was a very accurate description of a Roman scourging.
His back would have been laid open by the lashes He endured…so…
The cross…which was actually the crossbar weighing a little over 100 lbs. was laid across the Jesus’ shoulders…
But it would have been too heavy and too painful for Him to handle by Himself in such a weakened state…
Many have said that He was God so He couldn’t be weak…yes, He is God…but He is also man…
And as a man He felt every lash of that Roman whip…He felt pain…and He felt weakness…
He felt the rejection and the abandonment of the very people He came to save.
