Philip,

If Christ was crucified, then we are told that nails were used through his hands, not his wrists, and that not a single bone of his body was broken.

The flesh of the hands would never support a man's weight. The bones of the wrist would be shattered by a Roman nail. It would not be possible to hold a man's arm against a piece of wood whilst a nail is driven in, since the force and tendency to pull ones arm away would be too great.

Hence, if Christ was crucified, then I suggest that his arms had to be bound firmly to the wood before the nails were driven through his then immovable hands.

Neville.

Neville, I will find the medical detail soon..  Meanwhile where in the bible does it say rope was used. or that it was in the palm... I ask this despite Mel Gibsons depictation.
 
Was it not an unusual method of the time  that nails were used?
