John 19:2 - Forerunner Commentary

John 19:2

The Soldiers Mock Jesus

1 So then ^aPilate took Jesus and scourged Him.

2 And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe.

3 ¹Then they said, “Hail, King of the Jews!” And they ^astruck Him with their hands.

4 Pilate then went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I am bringing Him out to you, ^athat you may know that I find no fault in Him.”

Pilate’s Decision

5 Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, “Behold the Man!”

6 ^aTherefore, when the chief priests and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!” Pilate said to them, “You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him.”

7 The Jews answered him, ^a“We have a law, and according to¹ our law He ought to die, because ^bHe made Himself the Son of God.”
