You're right. The Romans actually set up posts near the road and if a man or beast were to walk by they could “compel” them into service. That's what they did to Simon of Cyrene–they compelled him to help Jesus with His cross.

And its funny, as horriffic as it was Jesus didn't preach against it. He advised people to not only go that mile, but go a second in a spirit of love and service.

And that why “its absolutely necessary to walk them!”

I'm glad you liked the post and great comments!!
