Jesus carried the cross for approximately 0.5 miles (about 600-900 meters) along a route known as the Via Dolorosa, from the place of his judgment before Pilate to Golgotha, where he was crucified

. This journey likely took between 1 to 3 hours, considering Jesus was severely weakened from prior scourging and the heavy burden of carrying the crossbeam, with stops along the way and assistance from Simon of Cyrene for part of the route

. Regarding the time Jesus spent on the cross, the Gospels indicate he was crucified around 9:00 A.M. and died around 3:00 P.M., meaning he was on the cross for about six hours

. The crucifixion process was excruciating and slow, designed to prolong suffering, but Jesus' death occurred within this six-hour timeframe

. In summary:

• Jesus carried the crossbeam approximately 0.5 miles to Golgotha.
• The walk likely lasted 1 to 3 hours due to his physical condition and the heavy load.
• Jesus was on the cross for about six hours, from roughly 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M.
