Why then did Roman Soldiers cast lots for his garmets? Jesus was an enormous "celebrity," and even the Romans were aware of his notoriety. "The whole world has gone after him" is attestation enough of this fact.
His garments were valuable souvenirs, and the Roman soldiers knew it.

Roman soldiers were also often drafted to serve and weren’t well paid. They would have been willing to steal the dead’s clothes because that would have been one thing they wouldn’t have had to buy.
