Luc 22:63 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:63

And the men that held Jesus
Whilst he was before the sanhedrim; and were either the Roman soldiers, or the servants of the high priest, who kept hold of him all the while, lest he should get away; though there was no reason for it; his time was come, nor would he escape out of their hands, though he could easily have rescued himself: mocked him;
insulted him, and gave him very opprobrious language, and used him in a very scurrilous way, and even spit upon him; and smote him.
This clause is left out in the Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions; the word used, signifies plucking off the skin; they pinched him, and tore off his flesh with their nails; they plucked the hairs of his beard, and the skin of his cheeks along with them, and so fulfilled ( Isaiah 50:6 ) .

Luc 22:63 In-Context

61 Le Seigneur s'étant retourné, regarda Pierre; et Pierre se ressouvint de la parole du Seigneur, et comment il lui avait dit: Avant que le coq ait chanté, tu m'auras renié trois fois.
62 Et Pierre étant sorti, pleura amèrement.
63 Or, les hommes qui tenaient Jésus, se moquaient de lui et le frappaient;
64 Et, l'ayant couvert d'un voile, ils lui donnaient des coups sur le visage, et lui disaient: Devine qui est celui qui t'a frappé?
65 Et ils disaient beaucoup d'autres choses contre lui, en l'injuriant.
