Roman Spear Point Replica

$19.95

Roman Spear Point Replica (pewter cast). About 9 3/4 inches. John 19:33-34 states, "But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs: But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water." During the Roman times the condemned carried just the cross beam, not the entire cross. The upright beam was left at the place of crucifixion. A sign proclaiming the crime was hung around the condemned's neck. The condemned was stripped of clothing and flogged. The condemned person's arms were either tied to the cross beam or nailed and then lifted and attached to the upright beam. They usually put the nails in the wrists. Often the feet were tied or nailed to the upright beam. A wooden block was tied under the rear of the condemned to help support the weight of the body and prolong suffering. Death often took several days. Josephus calls the crucifixion as the most wretched of deaths.
