The Swedish theologian Gunnar Samuelson, who teaches at the University of Gothenburg, has come to a conclusion that may shock many deeply religious people. In his opinion, the story of the crucifixion of Christ on the cross is a myth created by the Christian church and artistic illustrations
According to Samuelson, the legend of his execution is based on the traditions of the Christian church and artistic illustrations, not old texts. He claims that the Bible has been misinterpreted because it does not explicitly mention the use of nails or crucifixion. It only says that Jesus carried something to Calvary on which criminals are executed, and this object was not necessarily a cross. It could be a special post. Samuelson described his thesis over 400 pages after studying the original texts, and stated: Surprisingly, the problem is that there are no descriptions of the crucifixion in the ancient literature.
In the sources in which you can find at least something about the events that happened, there is absolutely no mention of crucifixions. Ancient Greek, Latin, and Hebrew literature from Homer to the first century AD describes an arsenal of executions, but not a word can be found about crosses or crucifixion. Any evidence that Jesus was left to die after being nailed to the cross is strikingly rare, both in ancient pre-Christian non-biblical literature and in the Bible.
And even there the texts do not describe the facts of the fulfillment of how Christ was tied to the cross. The essence of the problem lies in the fact that the text about the passions is descriptive in nature and does not carry any precise information, and each Christian interprets it for himself in his own way according to his faith. If you search for texts that depict the act of nailing people to the cross, you will not find any mention in the Gospel.
That a man named Jesus actually existed at that time is very well documented. He left, but left a deep mark on the literature of the time. I believe that the person mentioned is the son of God. My suggestion is not that Christians should reject or doubt the biblical text. My suggestion is that we should understand the text as it really is, and not as we used to think. We must read line by line, not between lines. The Bible text is sufficient. We don't need to add anything.
