Rather peculiar question about blood and water?
I read that when Jesus was on the cross his side was pierced and water and blood came out. What is the diagnosis of water and blood coming from a wound? Why would there be water? I find this strange.

This is a really good question one that at one point someone answered for me to answer it first I must cover some history so you will be more likely to understand when the Romans crucified a person if they were made to carry their own cross it was tied to the wrists of the cross carrier not just set on their shoulder so they had their arms spread as if they were all ready nailed to it so when Jesus fell on the road his chest is what hit the road not just his hand like if his hands were free at that point it is believed that his heart received a series of stress fractures this a medically documented condition the result is that after a few minutes it varies how much time exactly the heart will explode after that kind of trauma the blood in the system does not rebound as quickly as the water because it is not as dense the water in that closed in space the water moves up and out so the blood sinks so when the side of Jesus was pierced the water being thinner spilled out first I hope that answers your question and if you are interested in learning more I am sure that there are some web sites that can help
