The Roman Soldier That Saw The Last Minutes of JESUS on the Cross.
The Roman soldier traditionally associated with witnessing the crucifixion of Jesus Christ is not explicitly named in the canonical Gospels of the New Testament. However, he is often referred to as the centurion. The Gospel of Matthew (27:54) states:
"Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, became very frightened and said, 'Truly this was the Son of God!'"
In the Gospel of Mark (15:39), a similar account is provided:
"When the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, 'Truly this man was the Son of God!'"
The Gospel of Luke (23:47) also mentions the centurion's response:
"Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, saying, 'Certainly this man was innocent!'"
In these accounts, the centurion acknowledges the extraordinary events that accompanied Jesus' death, such as the earthquake and the manner of his passing, and makes a statement affirming Jesus as the Son of God or an innocent man.
It's important to note that while the biblical accounts emphasize the centurion's recognition of the significance of Jesus' death, they do not provide a detailed personal narrative for this Roman soldier. The additional details about a specific Roman soldier named Longinus, who pierced Jesus' side with a spear and subsequently converted, are not found in the canonical Gospels but are part of later Christian traditions and apocryphal writings.
