Nope, LS, it is actually that's just the opposite. The image on the Shroud shows exit wounds coming out the back of the wrist of one crossed over arm, but there is a place on the base of the palm, where a natural pathway opens between the bones of the hand that Roman soldiers skilled in the art of crucifixion would know that exits exactly at the point seen on the Shroud.
If the nail were driven in the center of the palm, as artists depicted it for centuries, the weight of the body would tear through with the motion of a man in agony during crucifixion. Even the dead weight of a deceased body would do so, and multiple accounts of historians tell of bodies remaining on crosses for weeks show this did not happen.
The one extant example of a 1st Century crucifixion victim we have, Jehohannan, has a nails still in his arm, shows that the nail was driven through even farther up, through the forearm.
So the image on the Shroud is right, the images drawn by artists wrong.
“The one extant example of a 1st Century crucifixion victim we have, Jehohannan, has a nails still in his arm, shows that the nail was driven through even farther up, through the forearm.”
Correction: I mis-remembered Jehoannan’s case. The nail was through the ankle bone. The forearm showed scrapes of the passage of the nail through the on both the ulna and radius. There are some broken bones in the hand bones which some interpret to mean a nail was driven through there, but it is an outlying interpretation and an unlikely result of driving a nail in the hand as no pathologist has ever seen the metacarpal bones broken by a nail driven through a cadaver’s hands during testing.
