Longinus is the name given to the Roman centurion said to have pierced Christ's sword on the cross, but the name is also associated with the (unnamed) Roman centurion who asked Jesus to heal his sick "slave". The slave, or "pais" (boy) is likely to have served as a sexual partner, as well as a domestic servant.
