*The sons of Simon of Cyrene are named as if they might have been early Christian figures known to Mark's intended audience.{{sfn|Brown|Fitzmyer|Murphy|1990|p=628}} [[Paul of Tarsus|Paul]] also lists a Rufus in [[Epistle to the Romans|Romans]] [http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=52&chapter=16&version=31 16:13].
*Most garments of the region were made of woven strips of material that were about eight inches wide and included decorative braids from two to four inches (102&nbsp;mm) wide. The garments could be disassembled and the strips of cloth were frequently recycled. A single garment might hold sections of many different dates. However, in Damascus and Bethlehem cloth was woven on wider looms, some Damascene being {{convert|40|in|mm}} wide. Traditional Bethlehem cloth is striped like pajama material.<ref>Powerhouse Museum, Sydney, exhibition notes</ref> It would thus appear that Jesus's "[[Seamless robe of Jesus|seamless robe]]" was made of cloth from either Bethlehem or Damascus.
*A tradition linked to [[icon]]s of Jesus holds that [[Saint Veronica|Veronica]] was a pious woman of Jerusalem who then gave [[Veil of Veronica|her kerchief]] to him to wipe his forehead. When he handed it back to her, the image of his face was miraculously impressed upon it.
