What's so Funny About Crucifixion?
Mocking someone involves making fun of them in a cruel or derisive manner.
While Jesus was being crucified, people were lined up to mock him.
I guess it gave them a chance to tell their favorite jokes about brutal executions. It can be hard to find the right time and place to share those, right?
But it's how Jesus responded that holds my attention in this story. And it should be the detail that matters most to you as well.
Check it out.
