The water came from the pericardial and pleural effusions from the scourging and subsequent asphyxiation.
This is all detailed in a report made by the AMA. But what do doctors know right?
Jesus of Nazareth underwent Jewish and Roman trials, was flogged, and was sentenced to death by crucifixion. The scourging produced deep stripelike lacerations and appreciable blood loss, and it probably set the stage for hypovolemic shock, as evidenced by the fact that Jesus was too weakened to carry the crossbar (patibulum) to Golgotha. At the site of crucifixion, his wrists were nailed to the patibulum and, after the patibulum was lifted onto the upright post (stipes), his feet were nailed to the stipes. The major pathophysiologic effect of crucifixion was an interference with normal respirations. Accordingly, death resulted primarily from hypovolemic shock and exhaustion asphyxia. Jesus' death was ensured by the thrust of a soldier's spear into his side. Modern medical interpretation of the historical evidence indicates that Jesus was dead when taken down from the cross.

All based upon pure suppositions. It is a theory. They didn't even look for alternate explanations.
One can also present the theme of lance in the side hitting the spleen and a clear liquid and blood was emitted, meaning that he was still alive.

Hebrew is an all consonant language, the vowels do not matter. Some say the aramaic Yeshua, Yahshua, Yashuwah, Yahoshua, Yehoshua, Yahushuwah. You're better off just going with the aramaic or greek Jesus.

Didn't read a single PDF.
Its all based upon the accounts in the gospels and the doctors knowledge of modern medicine. The chief writer has performed over 15000 autopsies.

EXCERPT
To the Editor.— In the article, "On the Physical Death of Jesus Christ,"1 a historically inaccurate version of the events leading to Jesus' death is portrayed (although I am not disputing the physiopathological assertions). The reliance of Edwards et al on the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John as a primary basis for deriving historical data is unfounded. The Gospels are a set of theological documents that are not necessarily historical. The reliance on the scriptures as a source of scientific inquiry pertaining to the actual history of Jesus has been refuted by biblical scholars.2-4
The many accounts of Jesus' death have been tainted by the lack of scientific empiricism on behalf of religious historians attempting to record his life. The authors of the Gospels were not fundamentally interested in recording reliable historical data.

People disagree, hasn't that happened for 2,000 years now? This thread wouldn't exist if that weren't the case.
Notice anything interesting about that Dr's name?

So, you see, even your own site's doctors are arguing the validity of their assertions.
