Bible Backdrop Extra: The Crucifixion

Matthew Episode 41

As we prepare for Easter, we often think about Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. But just how horrible was crucifixion? How did it affect the body of the person being crucified? What did Jesus go through before and during his time on the cross? In this Extra episode of Bible Backdrop, we look at some of the science and biology behind the crucifixion. When you read the Gospel stories, you will have a better understanding of what our Lord and Savior physically went through while on the cross to bear our sins.
