I would hate to be crucified without being thoroughly whipped first. I don’t want to live a long time on the cross itself and it always seemed too clean to be unmarked except for the nails. If it’s to be death, I want the sjambok and flagrum used to rip apart and bruise me up.
To me the scourging was a necessary part of the process. Crucifixion was done as a deterrent --(don't let this be you) so it would be done to make the victim as damaged looking as possible IMO.
