Jesus was put on a cross.
Answer:
None. The word "cross" [Latin: crux] isn't in the original Bible manuscripts.
Subsequent translations took the liberty of substituting the inspired word, "stauros" [which is an upright stake, pale or post; i.e., tree trunk], with the Latin word "cross" in keeping with the popular pagan Babylonian custom of "crossing" oneself with the "tau" or "T" for "Tammuz." [Ezek.8:14]
