Jesus had to walk the entire way to calvary, even though he fell, and some one else carried the cross for him.
The central events of Christian faith-the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus- took place in Jerusalem, 'near the city'(John 19:20), 'outside the gate' (Hebrews 13:12) at Golgotha (Skull Place)(John 19:17/Matthew 27:33).
Luke 23:33 Jesus' cross is on Calvary. The place is called Golgotha which it is a place of a skull in Matt. 27:33.
Jesus was supposed to carry his cross to Golgotha, the place of crucifixion, just outside Jerusalem. However, he was weakened and not able to, and so it was borne by Simon.
Golgotha is traditionally identified with the site of Jesus' crucifixion, which is approximately less than a mile away from Jerusalem. The exact distance is not certain, but it is believed to be within walking distance.
The hill that you are refering to is the hill that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was crucified on. The hill is commonly called Golgotha and looks like a skull from a distance. The location is not exactly known. Though it is known Golgotha was outside of the walls of Jerusalem.
Golgotha
Jesus carried the cross to Golgotha, the site of Jesus' crucifixion.
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.
Golgotha
Yes.
Jesus was crucified on a mountain called Golgotha.
Veronica was a young girl who was in the crowd that was watching Jesus on His way to Golgotha. When there was a break in the crowd, Veronica took a chance and ran out to Jesus. She then took her veil and wiped His face. When she removed it, His image was imprinted on it.
The Roman Soldiers took Jesus from Gabbatha (approximately where the Church of Condemnation is located) to Golgotha, just outside of the Sheep Gate (where today the Lion's gate is). This is only 200 meters. For these 200 meters Jesus carried the cross himself. As they went outside the gate, they forced Simon of Cyrene to carry his cross up the steep slope of Golgotha. The slope of Golgotha starts immediately as you exit the gate, as testified to by John: And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: Joh 19,17 The other three Gospels testify that as Jesus went outside they forced Simon to carry his cross. Therefore John is correct in stating that Jesus carried his cross to Golgotha, for as soon as he went through the gate, he was at the base of Golgotha. There were many different people having very great differences concerning their perspective of Jesus. By far the majority of the people were in unity with the High Priest and wanted that Jesus be crucified. Just minutes before the whole crowd cried out, 'crucify him, crucify him'. Of the twelve, only John walked this road with Jesus to Golgotha, together with some women from Galilee, including his mother and his brothers. For them this must have been very heart breaking. They must have been more than mortified to see him so shamefully crucified. David himself foretold this.
