207 Matthew 27 B The Death of Life

Jesus is turned over to the soldiers to be crucified. They treat Him terribly, mocking, and hitting Him. He is then taken to be crucified. The taunt to 'save yourself' comes at Him from every side. After responding to the criminal at His side assuring him that he would be with Jesus in paradise, Jesus cries out to the Father "why have you forsaken me?" It is evident that Jesus felt forsaken by His Father. Then Jesus cries out again and released His spirit and dies. His body is taken to be placed in a tomb and guards are put in place to ensure the disciples don't steal his body and claim He had been raised to life.
