John 19:2-5
19:2 The soldiers
braided
a crown of thorns
and put it on his head, and they clothed him in a purple robe.
19:3 They
came up to him again and again
and said, “Hail, king of the Jews!”
And they struck him repeatedly
in the face.
19:4 Again Pilate went out and said to the Jewish leaders, “Look, I am bringing him out to you, so that you may know that I find no reason for an accusation against him.”
19:5 So Jesus came outside, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, “Look, here is the man!”
