Sixth Station: Jesus is flogged and crowned with thorns

Posted on April 8th, 2000

We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you.
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

John 19: 1-3

Then Pilate took Jesus and flogged him. 2 And the soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head and arrayed him in a purple robe. 3 They came up to him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and struck him with their hands.
