  • All we have is the description in words as given in the bible. Look it up. Any paintings you have seen are partly guesswork, some even contradict the biblical description. Too few paparazzi then, too many now. Darn.
  • No one really knows for sure, but the doctors who have guessed at the kind of wound that would have resulted in blood and water flowing out of the wound have suggested that the spear penetrated at about the 5th rib. I think that's about as precise as you are going to get.
  • Unfortunately the bible does not say where exactly he was pierced all it says is ''But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water''.
