Mark 15:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
21 (A)And they [a]compelled one that passed by, called Simon of Cyrene (which came out of the country, and was father of Alexander and Rufus) to bear his cross.
22 (B)[b]And they brought him to a place named Golgotha, which is by interpretation, the place of dead mens’ skulls.

- Mark 15:21 The rage of the wicked hath no measure, but in the mean season, even the weakness of Christ, being in pain under the heavy burden of the cross, doth manifestly show that a lamb is led to be sacrificed.
- Mark 15:22 Christ is led out of the walls of the earthly Jerusalem, into a foul place of dead men’s carcasses, as a man most unclean, not touching himself, but touching our sins, which were laid upon him, to the end that we being made clean by his blood, might be brought into the heavenly Sanctuary.
