Jesus where was he stabbed?

Answer 1

The Gospel of John says "But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water." (John 19:33, 34 NIV.) Later - after the resurrection - John records, "Then he said to Thomas, 'Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.'" (John 20:27 NIV.) Specifically, the word for "side" is πλευρὰν which Strongs' Concordance says means "a rib, i.e. (by extension) side" so, incidentally, it's the same word the Greek Lexicon of the Old Testament uses for Adam's side in Genesis 2:21. There is also a bit of controversy over Matthew 27:49 because the KJV and most other English Bibes leave out a sentence that is in some (but not the majority) of old manuscripts. This phrase is "And another took a spear, and thrust it into His side, and out came water and blood." as cited in an article at http://bibletools.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/Bible.show/sVerseID/26860/eVerseID/26860 This is essentially in agreement with John's account, so it doesn't really make much of a difference whether you accept the line from Matthew or not; Jesus was stabbed by a spear in his side.

Answer 2

This was one of the Roman soldiers in charge of the crucifixion of not only Jesus but also the other two theives crucified with him, as recorded in John's Gospel. John was the only disciple who did not desert Jesus and was present as an eye witness at the crucifixion, as recorded in his gospel '...present was also the "disciple Jesus loved"...' . The soldier, however, was unnamed. We know there were several soldiers there as they gambled for Jesus' cloak. It was unlikely to be the same soldier who exclaimed 'Surely this man was the Son of God' at Jesus' death, as the stabbing of criminals was a menial task and the soldier cited for uttering these words was said to be a centurion ( a high ranking soldier in charge of 100 others). He would, most likely have been a low rank charged with the task.

Answer 3

To remove any doubt that Jesus is really dead, one of the Roman soldiers jabs a spear into his side. The spear pierces the region of his heart, and immediately blood and water come out. The apostle John, who is an eyewitness, reports that this fulfilled prophecy in Zechariah 12:10. (John 19:33-37)

Answer 4

Jesus was stabbed in his side while he was on the cross, according to The Bible. This event is often referred to as the "Piercing of Jesus' Side" or the "Wound in Jesus' Side."

Answer 5

In pious legend, it is called the Holy Lance (also known as the Spear of Destiny, Holy Spear, Lance of Longinus, Spear of Longinus or Spear of Christ).

Answer 6

while he was hanging from the cross- a spear pierced His side, and blood and water flowed out (proving that He did indeed die, that He wasn't just unconscious)

(John 19:34)

Answer 7

Jesus was never stabbed but pierced in the side by a roman soldier.

Answer 8

No, Jesus was not stabbed three times. John 19:34 KJV but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
