The crucifixion victim probably had the nails driven in just above the wrist where the radius and the ulna come together. If it were the hand there would the the tendency for the nail to rip through the hand from the palm out b/w the fingers.

IIRC, the wrist was considered part of the hand in those days.

Josh McDowell's book "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" deals with the crucifixion pretty well.

But I do note this: it's not so much the issue where the nails were driven, it's the issue of His bodily resurrection 3 days later.

Paul preached the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus not nail placement.

This is an excellent book -

Josh McDowell’s book “Evidence that Demands a Verdict”.

Josh started out as an ATHEIST and wanted to prove the bible wrong and became an ardent BELIEVER - because the Bible is true.

All this idiotic nit picking won’t make it false - to those who KNOW.
