 Some of Jesus' adversaries in the Bible accuse him of imbibing excessive amounts of wine (Matthew Chapter 11, verse 19). [([[https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35120965|BBC]])] Some of Jesus' adversaries in the Bible accuse him of imbibing excessive amounts of wine (Matthew Chapter 11, verse 19).

 +
 +===== Long Hair =====
 +
 +Even throughout his ministry, when he would have had a more "natural" appearance, Jesus most likely did not have long hair. Long-haired Jewish males were more likely to have made a Nazarite vow, which Jesus did not. [([[https://www.quora.com/Why-was-Jesus-depicted-with-long-hair|Quora]])]
 +
 +===== Radical =====
 +
 +Jesus was labeled a radical during his day because he talked to women, spent time with sinners, and permitted his followers to pick grain on the Sabbath. [([[https://www.jstor.org/stable/45226633?seq=1#metadata_info_tab_contents|JSTOR]])]
 +
 +===== Looks =====
 +
 +Because Jesus was a Jew, he very definitely possessed Jewish characteristics such as olive complexion, brown eyes, and black hair. [([[http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/3958241.stm|BBC]])]
 +
 +===== Height =====
 +
 +Scholars estimate Jesus stood around 5 feet 5 inches (1.7 meters) tall, which was the normal height for an adult male at the period. [([[https://www.christianity.com/wiki/jesus-christ/how-tall-was-jesus.html|Christianity]])]
 +
 +===== Name =====
 +
 +Most Jews used just one name during Christ's time, which may be followed by the phrase "son of..." or the person's hometown, which is why Jesus is sometimes referred to as Jesus of Nazereth. [([[https://www.britannica.com/biography/Jesus|Britannica]])]
 +
 +===== Solar Eclipses =====
 +
 +Scholars record two solar eclipses at the period of Jesus' death: one in 29 AD and one in 33 AD. According to the Christian Gospels, the heavens darkened after the crucifixion, implying that his death coincided with one of these eclipses. [([[https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article165869047.html|Kansas City]])]
 +
 +===== Trial =====
 +
 +Jesus Christ was arrested and tried by the Sanhedrin. Pontius Pilate condemned him to be crucified and scourged. [([[https://www.csmedia1.com/317ministries.net/the-trials-of-jesus.pdf|csmedial]])]
 +
 +===== I Am Thirsty =====
 +
 +"I am thirsty," Jesus stated before dying. He was provided wine laced with myrrh or gall to drink as a response. He turned it down. [([[https://www.gotquestions.org/I-thirst.html|Got Questions]])]
 +
 +===== Mary Magdalene =====
 +
 +According to Mark and John's gospels, Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene initially after his resurrection. She was a part of his ministry from the beginning to the end, and she is referenced more frequently than most of the apostles. [([[https://www.history.com/news/mary-magdalene-jesus-wife-prostitute-saint|History]])]
 +
 +===== Six Hours =====

 +After being hanged on the cross for six hours, Jesus died. [([[https://www.learnreligions.com/how-long-was-jesus-crucifixion-on-the-cross-3955378|Learn Religions]])]
 +
 +===== After Being Crucified =====
 +
 +After Jesus was crucified, Roman soldiers divided his clothing among themselves and drew lots for his robe. [([[https://thevcs.org/casting-lots/they-parted-my-garments-among-them|VCS]])]
 +
 +===== Torture =====
 +
 +Torture in Christ's day was intended to psychologically destroy someone before they died as a result of physical wounds. [([[https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelshiels/2016/03/25/the-truth-of-what-it-is-like-to-be-crucified/?sh=20a113991e2f|Forbes]])]
 +
 +===== Discussion About Reasons =====
 +
 +While most academics believe that Christ's crucifixion was unavoidable, they dispute on the reasons behind it and the environment in which it occurred. [([[https://journal.rts.edu/article/it-was-made-to-appear-like-that-to-them-islams-denial-of-jesus-crucifixion-in-the-quran-and-dogmatic-tradition/|Journal]])]
 +
 +===== Via Dolorosa =====
 +
 +The journey Jesus travelled to his crucifixion is known as the "Via Dolorosa," which translates to "Way of Grief" or "Way of Suffering" in Latin. [([[https://dannythedigger.com/via-dolorosa/|Danny The Digger]])]
 +
 +===== Golgotha =====
 +
 +Because the Romans thought it would be too horrific to crucify someone in town, they forced individuals to carry their own cross to the outskirts of town, which in Christ's case was to Golgotha. [([[https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelshiels/2016/03/25/the-truth-of-what-it-is-like-to-be-crucified/?sh=20a113991e2f|Forbes]])]
 +
 +===== Crucifixion =====
 +
 +The term "crucifixion" literally means "being nailed on a cross". [([[https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Crucifixion|New World Encylopedia]])]
 +
 +===== Cicero About Punishment =====
 +
 +According to the Roman orator Cicero, "crucifixion is the most terrible and frightening of all penalties". [([[https://www.forbes.com/sites/kristinakillgrove/2015/12/08/this-bone-provides-the-only-skeletal-evidence-for-crucifixion-in-the-ancient-world/?sh=4eadbd2476d7|Forbes]])] 
 +
 +===== Anointed One =====
 +
 +"Christ" is a term derived from a Greek word that means "Anointed One". [([[https://ourrabbijesus.com/articles/what-does-the-word-christ-actually-mean/|Our Rabbi Jesus]])]
 +
 +===== Barabbas =====
 +
 +Despite Pilate's claim that he did not find Jesus guilty and gave the Jews the option of saving Jesus, they chose to save a murderer named Barabbas and crucified Jesus.[([[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Barabbas-biblical-figure|Britannica]])] 
 +
 +===== Look After Mary =====
 +
 +While hanging on the cross, Jesus instructed his followers to look after his mother, Mary. [([[https://www.christianity.com/jesus/death-and-resurrection/last-words/why-did-jesus-say-woman-behold-your-son.html|Christianity]])]
 +
 +===== Halo =====
 +
 +The halo that frequently graces the heads of Christ and other saints in works of art was originally a characteristic of the sun deity (Apollo or Sol Invictus). It was appropriated for depictions of Christ to demonstrate his celestial authority. [([[https://www.britannica.com/art/halo-art|Britannica]])]
