Read in context

Mark 15:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

16 Then the soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called the whole company together.

17 They dressed Him in a purple robe, twisted together a crown of thorns, and set it on His head.

18 And they began to salute Him: “Hail, King of the Jews!”

19 They kept striking His head with a staff and spitting on Him. And they knelt down and bowed before Him.

20 After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.
