* Simon a Cyrenian , a passer-by , who was coming from the country (the father of Alexander and Rufus ), they commandeered to carry the cross of Jesus . * So they led him to the place called Golgotha - a name which means "the place of a skull ." * There they attempted to give him wine mingled with myrrh ; but he refused it . Then they crucified him , and divided his garments among them , casting lots upon them to see what each should take . * It was nine oclock in the morning when they crucified him . * Over his head there was written the words of the charge against him . "The King of the Jews " * Now with him they crucified two robbers , one on his right hand and one on his left . * And the passers-by kept jeering at him , wagging their heads and saying . "Ah ! you who were to destroy the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days , save yourself ! * Come down from the cross ! * In the same way the high priests also , as well as the Scribes , kept on mocking him to themselves . "He saved others ," they said , "but himself he cannot save . * The Christ ! The King of Israel ! Let him now come down from the cross , that we may see and believe ." They also who had been crucified with Jesus kept reviling him .
