This passage from the Gospel of John, chapter 19, recounts the trial and crucifixion of Jesus. Pontius Pilate questions Jesus and ultimately yields to the demands of the Jewish leaders who insist on his execution. The text details the soldiers' mockery, Jesus carrying his cross to Golgotha, and his crucifixion alongside two others. It further describes the division of his garments, the sign placed on the cross, his final words, his death, and the subsequent piercing of his side before his burial by Joseph of Arimathea.
