Jesus' Death
(Editor's note: This Is the fifth In ? series of six article;
appearing In The Cherokee Scout condensed from Charles
L. Allen's new book. THE LIFE OF CHRIST, copywright
ed by Fleming H. Revell Company. Used by permission.)
As they led Jesus away to be crucified, they took hold
of Simon, a Cyrenlan who was coming In from the country
and made him carry the cross. A large crowd followed.
Including many women who mourned over him. Turning
to them. Jesus said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not
for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
For If they do these things In a green tree, what shall be
done In the dry?"
They came to a place called "The Place of a Skull,"
which In Hebrew Is called Golgotha. They offered him a
drink of wine mixed with a bitter drug, but when he had
tasted It, he refused to drink It. Then they crucified him,
and the criminals with him, one on his right and the other
on his left. Jesus said, "Father, forgive them: for they
know what they do,"
Pilate worte an Inscription and It was put on the cross.
It said, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
This inscription was read by many Jews, for the place
where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and It was
written In Hebrew and Greek and Latin. The chief priests
of the Jews said to Pilate, "Write not. The King of the
Jews; but that he said, 1 am King of the Jews." Pilate
answered "What I have written 1 have written."
When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided his
clothes Into four parts and each of them took a part, ex
cepting his cloak. The cloak was seamless, having been
woven in one piece. They said to themselves, "Let us not
rend it, but cast lots for It, whose it shall be."
Those who passed by shouted abuse at him. They wagged
their heads and said, "Thou that destroyest the temple,
and buildest it In three days, save thyself. If thou be the
Son of God. come down from the cross." In the same manner
the chief priests mocked him, along with the scribes and
elders, saying, "He saved others; himself he cannot save.
If he be king of Israel, let him now come down from the
cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God; let
him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said. I
am the Son of God.
One of the criminals, who was hanging there with him,
heaped scorn on him, saying, "If thou be Christ, save thy
self and us." The other criminal rebuked him and ans
wered, "Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art In the
same condemnation? And we Indeed justly; for we receive
the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done
nothing amiss." And he sald,,"Lord rem
nothing amiss." And he said, "Lord remember me when
thou comest Into thy kingdom." And Jesus said to him,
"Verily I say unto thee, today Shalt thou be with me In
paradise."
Standing near the cross of Jesus was his mother, and her
sister Mary, the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he
loved standing near to her, he said to her, "Woman, be
hold thy sonl" Then he said to the disciple, "Behold thy
mother!" From then on thst disciple took her to live In his
home.
From noon until three o'clock in the afternoon there was
darkness over all the land. About three o'clock Jesus cried
out loudly, "Ell, Eli, lama sabachthanl?" which means,
"My God, my God. why hast thouforsakenme?" When some
of those standing there heard that, they said, "This man
calleth for Ellas."
After this, he knew that everything had been accomplished
to fulfill the scripture. He said, "I thirst." Immediately one
of them ran and got a sponge, filled it with wine, put it on a
stick and put It up to his lips. The others said. "Let be,
let us see whether Ellas will come to save him." When
Jesus had received the wine, he said, "ItIs finished." Then
In a loud voice he said. "Father, Into thy hands I commend
my spirit." Having said that, he died. At that very moment,
the curtain of the temple was torn In two from top to bottom.
The earth shook and the rocks were spilt open. Graves were
opened and many bodies of the saints came to life and com
ing out of their graves after his resurrection, they went in id
Jerusalem and were seen by many.
Because It was the day of preparation for the Passover,
and bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, for
the Sabbath was a holy day, the Jews requested Pilate to have
the men's legs broken and their bodies taken away. The
soldiers came and broke the legs of the two who were cruci
fied with Jesus. When they got to Jesus and saw that he was
already dead, they did not break his legs. One of the soldiers
thrust a spear In his side, and Immediately Mood and water
came out. An eyewitness who could be trusted told that this
happened. He knew that he spoke the truth and others would
believe, also.
Jeaus' Resurrection
(Editor's nou: This Is the last In a series of six articles
appearing In The Cherokee Scout condensed from Charles L.
Allen's new book, THE LIFE OF CHRIST, copyrighted by
Fleming H. Revell Company. Used by permission.)
At siairtse on the first day of the week, the women went to
the sepulchre. As they went, they said ?> each other, "Who
shall roll us away the stooe from the door of the sepul
chre?" When they arrived they saw that the stone, which
was very large, had already been rolled away.
They went Into the sepulchre and there saw a yotatg man
sitting on the right side, clothed In a long whits robe. They
were frlghMned. He said to them, "Be not affrlghMd: Ye
seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: He Is risen;
he Is not here: Behold the place where they laid him. But
go yotr way. Mil his disciples and Pa Mr that be goeth before
you lntoGalllee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you."
They hurried outside and ran from the sepulchre, trembling
In amazement. Because of their fear they said nothing to
anyooe.
Mary Magdalene hurried to Simon Pater and the other
dtsdpie whom Jesus loved, and said n them, "They have
taken away die Lord out of the sepulchre, and we do not know
?here they have laid him I"
1 Peter wui that other disciple went out and ran Mgether
toward the sepulchre. The other disciple outran Peter and got
there first. Stooping down so he could look In, he saw the
linen clothes lying there, and the cloth which was about
Jesus' head was not with the other clothes, but folded to
gether in a place by Itself. Then the other disciple who had
arrived first at the sepulchre went In also, and he saw and
believed. As yet they did not understand the Scriptures which
said that he must rise from the dead.
The disciples went back home; but Mary remained outside
the tomb, weeping. As she wept, she stooped down and looked
into the sepulchre. She saw two angels clothed in white
sitting there, one at the head and the other at the feet, where
the body of Jesus had lain. They said to her, "Woman, why
weepest thou?" She replied, "Because they have taken away
my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him."
When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus
standing there, but she did not know it was Jesus. Jesus
said to her, "Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest
thou?" She, supposing him to be the gardener, said to him,
"Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast
laid him, andl will take him away." Jesus said to her,"Maryl
Mary!" She turned to him and said, "Rabbonil" which
means "Master." Jesus said to her, "Touch me not; for
1 am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethern,
and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your
Father; and to my God and your God."
Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples that she had
seen the Lord and what he had said to her.
That same day two of those who knew Jesus were making
their way to the village of Emmaus, which was about seven
miles from Jerusalem. They talked to each other about all
that had happened. As they talked, Jesus, himself, came up
and walked with them, but they were prevented from recog
nizing him.
They came near to the village where they were going. He
acted as though he were going on farther, but they insisted.
"Abide with us: for it Is toward evening, and the day Is far
spent." So he went in to tarry with them.
As they sat at the table together, he picked up the bread
and asked the blessing. Then he broke the bread and gave it
to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized
him; and he vanished from their sight. They said to each
other, "Did not our heart bum within us, while he talked
with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures
They got up during that very hour and returned to Jeru
salem. They found the eleven and those who were with them,
and said to them. "The Lord is risen Indeed, and hath ap
peared to Simonl" They told what had happened on the road
and how they recognized him when he broke the bread.
On the evening of that same day, it being the first day of
the week, the disciples were assembled together, with the
doors shut because of their fear of the Jews. Jesus came
and stood among them and said, "Peace be unto you."
When he had said this, he showed to them his hands and side,
rhe disciples were filled with gladness when they saw the
-ord.
