Kan ik er wat aan doen?


Het
gebeurt dus
allemaal dag in
dag uit & nacht na
nacht nog steeds overal op aarde:
wat we gedurende de afgelopen duizenden jaren
hebben doorverteld, opgeschreven
& herkauwd is ook nu
nog steeds aan
de gang!!

Geen
wonder dat
ik er over droom,
probeer uit te leggen & uit te pluizen
hoe 'alles' in elkaar
steekt ...



After
degrading Yehoshua,
the soldiers led him away to be crucified.
On the way to the execution site, the Romans
compelled a passing Jew named Shim'on to carry
the cross for Yeshua
according to Mark
15:21.

This Shim'on
originated from Cyrene in North Africa.
In those days, Cyrene was an important Jewish center.
The name Shim'on and those of his sons, Alexander and Rufus,
were also very common among Jews everywhere. Rufus
is the equivalent of
the biblical name
Re'uven.

It was
not uncommon
for the Roman occupying forces
to demand statutory labor of pilgrims during Jewish festivals. Heading toward Golgotha
{'the place of the skull'}, this procession left the city. Compassionate Jews, as their custom,
offered Yeshu wine mixed with myrrh to help numb the agonizing death he faced;
but he refused it according
to Mark 15:23.

Three men
were crucified together,
two brigands, one on the right and one on the left,
and he who was many years later to be called "JC" in the middle. The soldiers placed HIM
in the positionof distinction on purpose: it was their parting,
a cruel gesture of "honor" to
"the King of the Jews!"

Hanging
upon the cross,
Yeshu said, "Father, forgive them, fot they know not what they do!"
 Lucky Luke {23:34} is lacking in important manuscripts: this verse was probably omitted
by those who believed that [their version] of "Jesus" had prayed for the Jews, and this seemed to them to be im-probable. Luke 23:24 has a parallel
in the last words of Stephanos
in Acts 7:60.

As has been suggested
already several times before, Yehoshua was probably not interceding
on behalf of those Jews who were responsible for his execution by the Roman government,
but for the ignorant, Gentile soldiers, who crucified him. The soldiers divided his clothing
among themselves, and the people
stood watching.


WE
kijken ook
nu nog steeds
& proberen er soms
op eigen wijze 'iets' aan
TE DOEN
