Matthew 27:27-30

Jesus Is Mocked

27  a Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the b governor’s headquarters
Greek  the praetorium
and they gathered the whole d battalion
Greek cohort; a tenth of a Roman legion, usually about 600 men
before him.
28 And they stripped him and put f a scarlet robe on him, 29 and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him, they g mocked him, saying, “Hail h King of the Jews!” 30 And i they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head.
