Scene 20: Jesus meets the Women of Jerusalem (Station 8)

A lot of Women and Children of Jerusalem
The Centurion Longinus sees Jesus is about to fall again and calls a halt. He is concerned that Jesus won't make it to the place of crucifixion.
Sensing the pause, the Temple Guards get frustrated and push at the Roman Soldiers who push back and there is a clash.
While the Centurion rushes to sort out the mess, the women of Jerusalem meet Jesus.

The called, "Jesus why? Why?
Ohhh your wounds.
Your wounds your pain."
Jesus replied, "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but rather for yourselves and your children."



Don't cry for me...
Having sorted out the scuffle between the temple guards and his men, the Centurions turns to see Jesus with all these crying women and children.
"Get back!" he called as he gets his men to push them back.
Jesus once more braced himself to continue the final part of his Way of the Cross, still assisted by Simon of Cyrene.

Cry for you and your children.

Romans and Jews clashing

Crying.
