Mark 15:22 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:22

And they bring him unto the place, Golgotha
A famous, or rather an infamous one, well known, and much noted for the many executions there:

which is, being interpreted, the place of a skull;
because the skulls of men that had been executed and buried there, being dug up again, lay scattered about; (See Gill on Matthew 27:33).

Mark 15:22 In-Context

20 et postquam inluserunt ei exuerunt illum purpuram et induerunt eum vestimentis suis et educunt illum ut crucifigerent eum

21 et angariaverunt praetereuntem quempiam Simonem Cyreneum venientem de villa patrem Alexandri et Rufi ut tolleret crucem eius

22 et perducunt illum in Golgotha locum quod est interpretatum Calvariae locus

23 et dabant ei bibere murratum vinum et non accepit

24 et crucifigentes eum diviserunt vestimenta eius mittentes sortem super eis quis quid tolleret
