Abstract: | Did Jesus Christ die on the cross? It has been repeatedly speculated that Jesus of Nazareth did not really die on the cross when he was crucified. The spear thrust into his side and the flow of blood and water when pierced with a spear suggests that Jesus must have had some sort of hydrothorax and/or haemothorax at the time he was crucified. Management of hydrothorax and/or haemothorax in modern medicine is the establishment of chest drains. Further one might speculate that the thrust of the spear on the side, carried out to ensure the death of Jesus, may have had, in fact, an opposite effect, namely relief of hypoxemia, which might have been followed by recovery of consciousness after he was taken down from the cross. |
