What is the literary term of golgotha?

Golgotha is not really a literary term. It is often related to suffering or to the redemption accomplished by Jesus in his death on Golgotha. Since the word Golgotha comes from the Hebrew word 'gulgoleth' and is 'gulgalta' in Aramaic, which mean 'skull', it is related also to death and the dead. To see a picture of Golgotha, the top part of a skull, refer to the link below.


What literary term is golgotha?

No, Golgotha is not a literary term. It is the Mount on which Jesus was crucified. The word Golgotha in hebrew means skull, and in Greek the Gospels used the word 'Kranion', or cranium, the upper part of the skull.

What is elevation difference from Pilate's Palace to Golgotha?

Golgotha or Cranium is pretty high. The base of Golgotha is the same height as the Prätorium. But the top of Golgotha, where Jesus and the two criminals were crucified, is about 15 meters higher. The road Via Dolorosa, earlier called Decumanus Maximus, led from the Prätorium to Golgotha, passing by Bethsaide. (John 5) Jesus walked a few hundred meters but after going through the Sheep Gate he was helped by Symon of Cyrene to carry his cross up the steep slope of Golgotha.
