十字架shízìjià罗马帝国时代的一种刑具,是一个十字形的木架,把人的两手、两脚钉在上面,任他慢慢死去。据基督教《新约全书》中记载,耶稣被钉死在十字架上。因此基督教徒就把十字架作为信仰的标记,也看做受难或死亡的象征。{cross; crucifix; 十-shaped wooden frame that served as an instrument of torture during the Roman Empire, to which a person was nailed by the hands and feet and left to die slowly. According to The New Testament, Jesus was nailed to death on the cross, which Christians therefore regard as a symbol of both their belief and of suffering or death.} |
