I. THE CROSS ITSELF WAS A REPROACH ,

1 . It was a symbol of shame .

2 . It was an instrument of shame .

II. REPROACH WAS ASSOCIATED WITH IT .

1 . In the place of the crucifixion .

2 . In the inscription on the cross .

3 . In the characters crucified along with him .

III. REPROACH WAS CAST UPON HIM .

1 . By those that passed by .

2 . By the heads of the nation .

3 . By the impenitent malefactor .
