A symbolic cross

This cross is carried in the procession of Good Friday at the Naxxar parish, and is very interesting as it carries on it a series of symbols connected to the passion of Jesus. If you look closely, you will notice among other things: a spear, a sponge, a ladder, a bag of coins, a hammer and a plier, the nails, a cock, a pillar, a trumpet, a drum, the hand that slapped Jesus, a chalice, a pitcher, a Roman dreidel,  the INRI sign, and Veronica’s veil.
