The York Play of the Crucifixion

The York Play of the Crucifixion depicts the death of Jesus. Our class recreated the play into contemporary culture. Throughout the different reenactments, we see that the soldiers wanted not only to kill our Savior, but humiliate Him.  The hatred and disgust the soldiers had towards Him, made me depressed knowing the way Jesus was treated was inhumane. The soldiers called Him names like Mahound, traitor, and harlot. These words do not illustrate the character of Jesus. After class yesterday, I understand the love Jesus has for us is everlasting. Our Creator was condemned, yet still decided to die for the sins of the world.
