THE STORY OF JESUS CHRIST AS TOLD TO ME FROM MY GRANDMOTHERS IN THE VILLAGE!


The fifth day of Holy Week by Ann Wood

The fifth day of Holy Week!
It is called Good Friday and Good Friday.
Good Friday is the saddest, most difficult day for the son of God. He is interrogated, and Pilate, incited by the crowd, who roared "Crucify Him!", gave him a severe sentence. On that day, Jesus suffered countless insults, torments, incredible sufferings. C crown of thorns on the head, shouldered and forced to bear in the ascent to his lobular place the heavy cross on which he will be crucified. The innocent Lamb was crucified on Golgotha between two robbers - "tortured for our iniquities and tormented for our sins", sacrificed for the sins of all mankind. At his death, the sky was rent, the earth lost, the sun hid its face, darkness hung over Calvary.
Black, dark, shocking is the day when the Son of God died, crucified as the most infamous robber. On Good Friday, he was buried in a stone sarcophagus in a cave, in front of which the authorities left a guard and a huge stone at the entrance. On this day in the temples is His funeral service.
It is no coincidence that on this day of Holy Week, the fast is particularly strict: the Church orders then not to eat or drink anything (even water). And the people say that on Good Friday the chicken doesn't sing and the nest doesn't cry. Every breath suffers together with the God-man, sympathizes with his death and burial.
