Matthew 27:33-34 King James Version (KJV)
33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
Matthew 27:33-34 Expanded Bible (EXB)
33 They all came to the place called Golgotha, which means [C in Aramaic]the Place of the Skull. 34 •The soldiers [L They; C this could be the soldiers or the women of Jerusalem] gave Jesus wine mixed with gall to drink [C the gall was either a sedative or further mockery, making the wine bitter; Ps. 69:21; Prov. 31:6]. He tasted the wine but refused to drink it.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
33 At this place from a far you can see a skull in the side of the hill. There was no better place for His death, it was likely they chose this place because of the skull in the hill side. I believe God designed the hill this way because it would be where Jesus died.
34 This drink was to make it less painful, this would allow the person to live longer on the cross but still cause death. Jesus took it all for us. Thru His pain He bore our sins.
