Jesus Crucifiction------
The Year Jesus Of Nazareth Was Crucified----
The Anno Domini system was developed by a monk named Dionysius Exiguus born in Rome in 525, as an outcome of his work on calculating the date of Easter.
33 AD is a commonly accepted date, In this year it was Friday April 3rd.
33 AD give or take 4 years, AD in English means in the year of our Lord. In the month of Nisan, [Last half of March, First half of April]on the Jewish calendar because their months consisted of only 30 days, the date that Witnesses celebrates the Lord's Evening Meal or The Memorial of Christ's Death, the date changes every year.
Jesus and his apostles were celebrating the Jewish Passover [the night the Jews were freed from Egypt] when Jesus changed the yearly celebration for Christians Now he would be the Sacrificial Lamb whose blood caused the Angel of Death 'Pass Over" the Jewish households, when destroying the first born of all Egypt
The date for Easter celebrations changes every year as well, though this holiday celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus, not his death.
Jesus Crucifiction---
Hanging on a cross was the most disgraceful, agonizing and cruel form of death penalty. In the times of Romans, such a death penalty was imposed only on the most hardened criminals. The torture of crucified man is impossible to describe. Besides unbearable pain in every part of the body, the crucified underwent the ordeal of terrible thirst and spiritual suffering until dead. The chiefs of the Jews wanted to disgrace Jesus Christ forever by condemning him to such a death.
The Reason------
Jesus came with his followers to Jerusalem during the Passover festival. He was involved in a public disturbance at the Temple in Jerusalem when he over turned the tables of the money changers there. At some point later, he was betrayed by one of his apostles, Judas, Iscariot, leading to his arrest. The Romans ruled the city and the Jewish authorities of the city had to arrest people in order to obey Roman orders t5o maintain the peace Jesus disciples went into hiding after he was arrested. Later he was sentenced to death by crucifixion.
The Suffering-----
When they brought Jesus Christ to Golgotha, the soldiers offered him sour wine to drink. mingled with bitter substances to lessen the suffering. The Lord, when he tasted it did not wish to drink it. he did not want to lessen the suffering. This suffering, he took upon himself voluntarily for the sins of all people, thus, he wanted to bear it consciously to the end. He was beaten by Roman soldiers, scourged, stripped and nailed to the cross
Final Hours-----
When all was ready, the soldiers crucified Jesus Christ. It was about midday, by Jewish reckoning the sixth hour of the day. When they crucified him, he prayed for his tormentors, saying "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." He was crucified between two robbers, and died.
