Mark 15:16-20
Wycliffe Bible
16 And knights led him withinforth, into the porch of the moot hall. And they called together all the company of knights,
17 and they clothed him with purple. And they wreathed a crown of thorns, and put on him [And they folding a crown of thorns, put on him].
18 And they began to greet him, and said [And began to greet him, saying], Hail, king of Jews.
19 And they smote his head with a reed, and bespat him; and they kneeled, and worshipped him.[a]
20 And after that they had scorned him, they unclothed him of the purple [they unclothed him from purple], and clothed him with his clothes, and led out him, to crucify him.

- Mark 15:17 Christ going about to take away the sins of men, who went about to usurp the throne of God himself, is condemned as one that hunted after the kingdom, and mocked with a false show of a kingdom, that we on the other side, who shall indeed be eternal kings, might receive the crown of glory at God’s own hand.
