Emily is discussing both Christ's crucifixion ("He") and also a universal crucifixion felt by all human beings after a terrible event that occurs in one's life, such as a death or other excruciating pain. She is also likely describing her own "crucifixion" and the aftereffects of feeling a disconnected numbness.
