It all started in a place called Gethsemane, located on Mount of Olives. Jesus began to pray in that place and going into great anguish began sounding the blood that seems very strange have a medical explanation. The rare case that can happen very difficult, but in this case Jesus Christ went through much difficulty, because the moment of his death had come, who would be happy knowing the moment of death yet, but the way that the crucifixion occurred.
According to medical sound drops of blood is a very rare emotional stress in excess filo capillaries of the sweat glands in the process of breaking feeling then shock the body, weakness, a principle cause of hypothermia. After the arrest was slapped his first physical trauma caused by a soldier, and being interrogated by caiphazes humiliated before all capping his eyes asked him to identify who beat him and beat his face early in the morning exhausted Jesus beaten with hematoma dehydrated, being taken to Jerusalem to be whipped, then stripped a soldier loved his hands above his head the post, according to the law of the time were banned more than forty lashes and to make sure that the law would not be broken thirty-nine lashes were given, Whip Leather straps with heavy lead balls on the ends tied is slammed against the back, shoulders, legs and cutting the tissues beneath the skin breaking the capillaries and veins having with this bleeding blood vessels in the deep muscles in the balls whip produce large and deep bruises break subsequent heavy whipping leave the skin on the back hanging in strips unrecognizable mass of bloody tissue around perforated leather in a cold sweat shaking in shock for a moment stopped the massacre is responsible centurion sends stop the prisoner is already close to death after that moment was the ground for a period the mantle in the back was stuck in the wounds and the soldiers pull the cover tightly and pulling back again to hemorrhage and then is placed a crown of thorns and the soldiers as they spit in the face of Jesus after they are commanded to carry a cross with an average weight of 55 kg and this weight still had to walk to Golgotha ​​the place of crucifixion still losing blood very suffering it falls after tripping wood chips enter the skin torn shoulder muscles bleeds, Simon was one of the thieves crucified next to Jesus carried the cross to Golgotha, the cross is then placed on the ground then putting Jesus on the cross for the depression between the wrist bones of the right hand between the wrist bones of the hand left and a square nail soldiers pierce the first nail in his right wrist Jesus moaning and screaming in pain the soldiers then put the second nail into his left hand and then another nail in the foot is stuck, so then another agony begins the cross is raised and written on it "This is Jesus, King of the Jews"
At this point begins a new phenomenon as the arms fatigue great waves of cramps go through all your muscles that cause severe pain with these cramps is unfit to push the body up his arms hanging by the pectoral muscles are paralyzed and the intercostal incapable of any movement air can be exhaled from the lungs but can not be inspired struggling to get up in order to get breath and this time carbon dioxide is retained in the lungs and blood and the cramps diminish spasmodically he is able to stand up inhaling and exhaling oxygen is that point that Jesus could speak the sentences recorded Looking for the Roman soldiers casting lots for his clothes, said "Father forgive them for they know not what they do" after hours of this pain cycle limiting twisting cramp intermittent partial asphyxiation together in intense pain chips because of pitches in the tissues of the back torn as he stood against the rough timber then another agonizing pain deep pain in the chest as the pericardium is filled with a liquid which compresses the heart to loss of tissue fluids has reached a critical level the compressed heart is struggling to slip up the blood thick and heavy fabrics to the tortured lungs are making small moves air markedly dehydrated tissues send stimuli to the brain sighs of thirst Jesus a sponge soaked in sour wine vinegar which the Roman soldiers used was raised to the lips of Jesus he does not drink, your body has no strength so he could say his last words "It is finished" but since then his weight pressing on his feet against the nail stretch their legs and taking a deep breath he says his last cry, "Father, Into Thy hands I commend my spirit" Breathing the last time the scripture was fulfilled.
