Mark 15:16-20

16The soldiers took Jesus into the courtyard of the governor’s headquarters (called the Praetorium) and called out the entire regiment.

17They dressed him in a purple robe, and they wove thorn branches into a crown and put it on his head.

18Then they saluted him and taunted, “Hail! King of the Jews!”

19And they struck him on the head with a reed stick, spit on him, and dropped to their knees in mock worship.

20When they were finally tired of mocking him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him again. Then they led him away to be crucified.
