Detailed explanation-1: -Crucifixion of criminals and political rebels was a common method of punishment by the Romans. Christians, unlike the Jews, believed that multiple gods could be worshipped. What happened after the Jews rebelled against the Romans in A.D. 132? Jews were banned from Jerusalem.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Romans executed most criminals by tying them to the wooden crosses, so it is highly unusual that Jesus was nailed. Some have even questioned whether it actually happened. But a new archaeological discovery in Italy adds weight to the Biblical claims about the death of Jesus.
Detailed explanation-3: -Examples of crimes that were punished with crucifixion include murder, theft, treason, slave rebellion, religious transgressions, and more. Also, sometimes military generals would crucify their enemies.
