‏ Luke 23:11

 Set him at nought ( εξουθενησας ). First aorist active participle from  εξουθενεω, to count as nothing, to treat with utter contempt, as zero.

 Arraying him in gorgeous apparel ( περιβαλων εσθητα λαμπραν ). Second aorist active participle of  περιβαλλω, to fling around one.  Λαμπραν is brilliant, shining as in Jas 2:2, so different from the modest dress of the Master. This was part of the shame.
