16And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.
17And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

About Mark 15: Jesus Before Pilate and Crucifixion
Jesus is crucified and buried, and on the third day He rises from the dead.
Commentary
Mark 15 is the account of Jesus' crucifixion. It begins with the Roman governor, Pilate, reluctantly handing Jesus over to be crucified. Pilate had tried to release Jesus, but the Jewish leaders insisted on his death. The soldiers then mocked and tortured Jesus before leading him away to be crucified.
