Abstract

This study delves into the narrative surrounding the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, examining it through historical, theological, and narrative perspectives. The aim is to comprehend its significance and the impact it has on the lives of Christians. The crucifixion of Jesus, a pivotal event in Christian belief, occurred under Roman authority in the first century, symbolizing not only physical suffering but also deep spiritual implications. The research scrutinizes a variety of biblical and extra-biblical sources related to the crucifixion, including the events leading up to Jesus' arrest, the legal trials he underwent, and his death on the cross. The study found that the narrative conflicts involve multiple parties and layers of complexity, with internal conflicts accounting for 9% and external conflicts constituting 45%. The theological exploration focuses on the role of the crucifixion in the atonement of humanity’s sins. The narrative analysis, on the other hand, concentrates on how the Gospels narrate this story, its influence on Jesus' early followers, and its ongoing relevance to contemporary Christian faith. The external conflicts are further categorized into conflicts between characters (18%), society (14%), nature (9%), and the supernatural (5%). The findings suggest that Jesus’ crucifixion and death have transformative significance, influencing both historical developments and the spiritual lives of his followers. These percentages not only quantify the conflicts but also underscore their importance in the narrative, offering a deeper understanding of these events from social, political, and theological perspectives.

Abstract

Semantic ambiguity remains a critical challenge in both linguistic theory and practical applications, especially in domains demanding high interpretive precision such as legal discourse. This study aims to examine the nature, sources, and implications of semantic ambiguity by integrating perspectives from cognitive linguistics, legal hermeneutics, and cross-cultural pragmatics. Employing a qualitative analytical method, data were drawn from legal case studies, discourse analysis, and comparative linguistic literature. The findings reveal that ambiguity often arises from polysemy, syntactic complexity, cultural frameworks, and pragmatic inference. In legal contexts, such ambiguity can significantly influence judicial outcomes and the interpretation of statutes. The study suggests that applying systematic semantic analysis and interdisciplinary interpretive models can minimize misinterpretation and promote fairness in communication. These results contribute to advancing theoretical insights in meaning studies while offering practical strategies for mitigating ambiguity in critical decision-making contexts.
