This is the English translation of INRI, which was nailed to the cross above Jesus's head. It's Latin for Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum.

Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews

THIS was the reason why the Jewish leaders couldn't carry out Jesus's execution themselves

The Cup of Consummation

Based on how Jesus was born without sin, his bones were not broken on the cross, he drank wine from a hyssop branch, and the time of day in which he was handed over, what can we say that Jesus is a "type" for?

These were the charges that the Sanhedrin came up with to convince Pilate to execute Jesus.

Jesus claimed to be King of the Jews (true) and Jesus forbid people to pay tribute to Caesar (a lie)
