This video is the second in a two-part series looking at the Crucifixion (Mark 15:16-39) through a first-century Roman Triumph lens.
The picture that Mark is painting - if we have eyes to see - is that Jesus is the king and true Son of God. The crucifixion is the coronation of a king! We can contrast the Roman Via Sacra - the Sacred Way - with the Via Dolorosa - the Way of Suffering. Jesus shows us the path to becoming king is through humility and submitting oneself to the will of God.

In this week's lesson, we begin an exploration of the details and sequence of the crucifixion as presented in Mark - chapter 15.
Each of the Gospel writers presents the narrative with slight differences. Mark's description of the procession to the cross is tightly worded with specific details. The question we will be asking is, why? Why those details in that order? As we will see, the details in Mark 15 are extraordinarily similar to the details of the Roman Triumph - the procession that declares the power and victory of Rome. Assuming Mark wrote in Rome - in the '60s - what would his first audience have thought?
