Due to the horrific abuse Jesus had already undergone, He was unable to carry the heavy wooden cross the Roman soldiers laid upon His back. ![]() The first mention of Rufus is in the context of events on the day Jesus was crucified. The Bible mentions Rufus in two places, and we can assume they both speak of the same man (Mark 15:21 Romans 16:13).
