“They clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him on the head with a reed, spit on him, and bowed their knees and worthipped him.. . . They took off the purple and put his own clothing on him, and led him out to crucify him. And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. In the ninth hour, He gave up the ghost.” He was Resurrected, and that’s why we celebrate.
Mark 15: 17 - 37
