The Messiah in Question 2



Is Jesus naked or not on the cross?

When Michaelangelo first presented his painting to Pope Julius II he was marveled,but this led to controversies because everyone was naked.But Biagio da Cesena,the Vatican's master of Ceremonies,said that"it was mostly disgraceful that in so sacred a place there should have been depicted all those nude figures,exposing themselves so shamefully"and that it was "no work for a papal chapel but rather for the public baths and taverns.Michaelangelo paints Biagio in hell with a coiled serpent

On the cross, Christ was indeed naked,Lk23:49. Although some commentators and movie portrayed him differently. Roman put to shame those that they crucify. Talk about holding a naked crucifix.No to idolatry


Also, he had four companions:2 Thieves,Mt27:44 and 2 malefactors,Lk23:32

malefactor
c.1440, from L. malefactor, from malefactus, pp. of malefacere "to do evil," from male "badly" (see mal-) + facere "to perform" (see factitious).Most certain for going against the government ,Jn18:30


MV:useless,He4:23
Bib1Yr:Lv14-16More Laws
