Mark 15:24

The cross and atonement

22 They brought Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull.

23 There they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it.

And they crucified Him. They also divided His garments by casting lots to decide what each of them would take.

25 It was the third hour when they crucified Him.

26 And the charge inscribed against Him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS.
