Well first off, Jesus didn't die on a cross, he died on a pole. (Mathew 27:38) And The Bible doesen't mention anything about the cost of the pole. === === == The cross of Jesus itself would not have cost much in terms of the timber and it is likely that the Romans re-used the cross after each execution. If you mean the cost of the cross in terms of what happenned there then the answer is quite different. The cross of Jesus cost the eternal Son of God, the creator of the world immense pain and in the end His life. The Romans had to coin a new word 'excruciating' (which comes from the Latin word crucis meaning 'a cross') to describe the pain which resulted when the hands were nailed, just above the wrist, and the relevant nerve pinched. Jesus was also utterly alone and forsaken by even His heavenly Father as He bore the sin of the world - including all those who hated Him then and others who hate Him still today, and even including those who don't believe in sin.
