Matthew 27:28 Context
26¶ Then released hee Barabbas vnto them, and when he had scourged Iesus, he deliuered him to be crucified. 27Then the souldiers of the Gouernour tooke Iesus into the common hall, and gathered vnto him the whole band of souldiers. 28And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe. 29¶ And when they had platted a crowne of thornes, they put it vpon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Haile king of the Iewes. 30And they spit vpon him, and tooke the reed, and smote him on the head.
