Iesus Nazareth Rex Iudea
Jesus from Nazareth King of the Jews.
Thats what the romans put up on the cross when they crucified ol' Jesus.
It was roman custom to write down the name, origin, and crime of anyone
crucified, to be read as a warning (also so you wouldnt have to answer
stupid questions all the time "what did that guy do, anyways ?")
In Jesus case they wrote "king of the jews" because he claimed that he was
king of the jews, which was a crime, and because he really didnt do anything
illegal (besides that)
Um. I think you mean Quod scripsi scripsi. It's perfect tense, not a plural
participle.

Actually it was Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum
Nazareth and Jews have to be put in the genitive case to show
possession.
>Jesus from Nazareth King of the Jews.
Actually, Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews

Pontius Pilate put it up and when the Jews asked him to take it off he
said, qoud scripti scripti meaning what i have written i have written
