Luke 23

The Crucifixion Bible Crossword

15×15 grid · Medium · Ends on Luke 23:33

The place called Calvary, two malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left, and a darkness over all the earth from the sixth hour to the ninth. The Crucifixion covers Luke 23 with the other Gospels' details woven in — the crown of thorns, the title written in three languages, the vinegar, the veil of the temple rent in the midst.

It is a sober puzzle and deliberately a plain one; the clues do not embellish. The closing verse is the sentence that names the place.
