SunStar April 03, 2021 THE HOLY Week story does not end with Jesus’ crucifixion on Good Friday. Yes, he was a victim of the most unjust trial ever – an innocent man condemned to die a criminal’s death; a sinless person entrusted to the hands of sinful men. He was scourged at the pillar, crowned with thorns, humiliated and terribly tortured, so much so that Isaiah 52:14 described him as the suffering servant whose “appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being.” He carried his heavy cross and upon reaching Golgotha (Calvary), was nailed onto it, dying a truly excruciating death. Then his body was buried by Joseph of Arimathea, assisted by Nicodemus and some of the women who followed him from Galilee.
