Luke 23

Jesus faces trials before Pilate and Herod, who find no guilt but yield to the crowd's demands to crucify him and release Barabbas; Simon of Cyrene carries his cross to the place called the Skull (Golgotha), where he is crucified between two criminals.[1][2][6] Jesus prays, 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do,' promises paradise to the repentant criminal, endures darkness and mockery, commits his spirit to the Father, dies as the temple curtain tears, and is buried by Joseph of Arimathea.[1][2][6][7]
