Marcos 15:17 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:17

And they clothed him with purple
Matthew calls it a "scarlet" robe; and the Persic version here renders it a "red garment": it was of a colour resembling purple; it was pretty near it, and therefore so called; which is what kings were used to wear; and so in derision of him, as a king, clothed him with this mock purple robe; and which was very likely one of the soldiers' old coats:

and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head;
for a crown, and also a reed in his hand, instead of a sceptre, as Matthew relates; (See Gill on Matthew 26:28), (See Gill on Matthew 26:29).

Marcos 15:17 In-Context

15 Então Pilatos, querendo satisfazer a multidão, soltou-lhe Barrabás; e tendo mandado açoitar a Jesus, o entregou para ser crucificado.

16 Os soldados, pois, levaram-no para dentro, ao pátio, que é o pretório, e convocaram toda a coorte;

17 vestiram-no de púrpura e puseram-lhe na cabeça uma coroa de espinhos que haviam tecido;

18 e começaram a saudá-lo: Salve, rei dos judeus!

19 Davam-lhe com uma cana na cabeça, cuspiam nele e, postos de joelhos, o adoravam.
