About 9 in the morning, soldiers crucified Jesus on a cross.
Governor Pilate ordered them to make a sign.
The sign was nailed over Jesus. It said:
"Jesus, King of All the Jews."
There were 2 men on crosses too, next to Jesus.
Some people mocked Jesus. Jesus was silent and said nothing.
Jesus was silent.
Then Jesus said a few words we couldn't understand.
At noon, the sun changed and became dark, it felt dark like at night.
The darkness lasted 3 hours, until 3 in the afternoon.
I heard Jesus shout! I couldn't understand his words. Then he died.
I was standing near a Roman soldier, and I heard him say:
"It's true. That man was the Son of God!"
