Jesus, as with the thousands of others who died through crucifixion, was naked on his cross  i.e. no loin cloth in spite of what one sees on statues.  I wonder: when we look at the crucified Jesus, do we ever think about the thousands of others who died as he did- in pain and humiliation??... and perhaps also in ''innocence'' given that the Romans used this kind of death as 'crowd control.'   Curiously, Jesus as portrayed in the Gospels, experienced an easier death than seemingly all others who died as crucified.  According to the Gospels... Jesus's death was hastened (and, some would say 'made easier) by a sword in his side causing an immediate death.   A 'normal crucifixion' was one that could go on for days as the body slowly suffocated, endured jeers, sun and what had to be a raging thirst.  Perchance, the Writers minimized the Lord's  suffering so as to force it into a ''fulfillment of the Prophets'' instead of the murder of an innocent man.
