Millard, Alan, on Strips of Linen
Alan Millard from Discoveries From the Time of Jesus
The body was dressed, the hands and feet tied so that they would stay in place, and the head bound with a bandage under the chin to stop the jaw sagging. But the crucified Jesus had no clothes (the soldiers took them), so Joseph's cloth could be a substitute, a shroud. John's pieces of linen might include it; they were not necessarily strips of linen as the New International Version translates.
