The weight of the cross that Jesus carried, also known as the "crossbeam," is estimated to have been around 75-125 pounds. The entire cross would have been heavier due to the vertical beam already in place at the crucifixion site.

How heavy was the cross of Christ?

The cross that Jesus carried was the cross beam that had a mortise in it that was fit with a tenon when raised up. It was probably 12 inches by 12 inches and 8 feet long. That would weigh about 50 pounds.AnswerWhile we can guess, as above, we do not really know the type of wood - the Bible concentrates on what Jesus did for us on the cross, not on the cross itself. Obviously it was relatively heavy, since Jesus weakened through sleep deprivation, His whipping and other maltreatment, could not carry it.

How come jesus had to carry the cross?

Pilate, the Roman Governor of the city. He didn't want to and he thought Jesus was innocent, but the people overpowered him. That's when he said the recognizable quote: "I wash my hands of this." i don't think it was Pilate. the guards that took him and the people of that city made him carry the cross, Pilate just gave the approval for him to be crucified. In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, Jesus doesn't carry the cross. It is carried by Simon of Cyrene. Only in John does it say that Jesus carried his own cross. It does not specify who made him do so.
