Sarcasm: The Persecutors of Jesus

They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand, knelt down before Him, and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.

The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, set it on His head, and dressed Him in a purple robe.

And they went up to Him again and again, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapping Him in the face.

When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

At this, they shouted, “Away with Him! Away with Him! Crucify Him!” “Shall I crucify your King?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” replied the chief priests.
