Jesus crucifixion

The crucifixion of Jesus is an event described in all four gospels which takes place immediately after his arrest and trial. In Christian theology, the death of Jesus by crucifixion is a core event on which much depends. It represents a critical aspect of the doctrine of salvation, portraying the suffering and death of the Messiah as necessary for the forgiveness of sins. According to the New Testament, Jesus rose from the dead after three days and appeared to his Disciples on different occasions during a forty day period before his ascension to heaven.
In Mark, Jesus is crucified along with two rebels, and the day goes dark for three hours. Jesus calls out to God, then gives a shout and dies. The curtain of the Temple is torn in two. Matthew follows Mark, adding an earthquake and the resurrection of saints. Luke also follows Mark, though he describes the rebels as common criminals, one of whom defends Jesus, who promises that the two of them will be together in paradise. Luke portrays Jesus as impassive in the face of his crucifixion. John includes several of the same elements as those found in Mark, though they are treated differently. Jesus' redemptive suffering and death by crucifixion are referred to as the Passion, from the Latin verb patior, to experience. In the Christian tradition, Jesus is said to have died for the sins of the world, a doctrine generally known as atonement, and in some cases as substitutionary atonement. Jesus' suffering is said to be foretold in Hebrew scripture, such as in Isaiah's songs of the suffering servant. Historians regard Jesus' crucifixion under Pontius Pilate as a historical event. Early Christians are considered unlikely to have invented Jesus' crucifixion because it embarrassed them.
The earliest detailed historical narrative accounts of the death of Jesus are contained in the four canonical gospels: Matthew 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, and John 19. There are other more implicit references in the New Testament epistles.According to all four gospels, Jesus was brought to the "Place of a Skull" and crucified with two thieves, with the charge of claiming to be "King of the Jews", and the soldiers dividing his clothes before he bowed his head and died. Following his death, Joseph of Arimathea requested the body from Pilate, which he then placed in a new garden tomb.
The three synoptic gospels also describe Simon of Cyrene bearing the cross, the multitude mocking Jesus along with the thieves, darkness from the 6th to the 9th hour, and the temple veil being torn from top to bottom. The synoptics also mention several witnesses, including a centurion, and several women who watched from a distance two of whom were present during the burial.
