Jesus Carries the Cross

Bible based presentation

The fourth sorrowful mystery

Luke 23:26 And as they led him away, they laid hold of one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country; and they laid the cross on him to carry after Jesus.

27 And there followed him a great multitude of people, and of women, who bewailed and lamented him.

28 But Jesus turning to them, said: Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not over me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

29 For behold, the days shall come, wherein they will say: Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have never suckled.

30 Then they shall begin to say to the mountains: Fall on us; and to the hills: Cover us.

31 For if in the green wood they do these things, what shall be done in the dry?
