who will mock Him
The Greek word for "mock" is "ἐμπαίζω" (empaizō), which means to ridicule or make fun of someone. In the historical context of Roman and Jewish cultures, mocking was a common way to demean and dehumanize a person, especially one who was seen as a threat or a criminal. Jesus, the Messiah, was subjected to this humiliation, fulfilling the prophecies of the suffering servant in Isaiah 53. This mockery was not just a physical act but a spiritual affront to His divine nature, highlighting the depth of human sinfulness and the extent of Christ's humility and love.

and spit on Him
Spitting was a profound gesture of contempt and disgrace in ancient cultures, including Jewish and Roman societies. The act of spitting on Jesus symbolizes the utter rejection and scorn He faced from humanity. The Greek word "ἐμπτύω" (emptuō) conveys this act of disdain. This moment underscores the prophecy in Isaiah 50:6, where the suffering servant is not shielded from shame and spitting. It serves as a poignant reminder of the lengths to which Jesus went to bear the sins of the world, enduring the ultimate humiliation for our redemption.

and flog Him
The term "flog" comes from the Greek "μαστιγόω" (mastigoō), referring to the brutal Roman practice of scourging. This punishment was severe, often leaving the victim near death. Historically, Roman flogging was a prelude to crucifixion, intended to weaken the condemned. Jesus' flogging fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah 53:5, "by His stripes we are healed." This act of physical suffering was part of the atonement process, demonstrating the physical and spiritual agony Christ endured for humanity's salvation.

and kill Him
The Greek word "ἀποκτείνω" (apokteinō) means to kill or put to death. This phrase points to the culmination of Jesus' earthly mission: His sacrificial death on the cross. Historically, crucifixion was a method of execution reserved for the most heinous criminals, yet Jesus, the sinless Son of God, willingly submitted to this death. His death was not a defeat but a divine plan for redemption, as foretold in scriptures like Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53. It signifies the ultimate act of love and obedience to the Father's will, providing the means for humanity's reconciliation with God.

And after three days He will rise again
The phrase "after three days" is significant in Jewish understanding, as it denotes a period of completion. The Greek "ἀνίστημι" (anistēmi) means to rise or stand up, indicating Jesus' resurrection. This event is the cornerstone of Christian faith, affirming Jesus' victory over sin and death. Historically, the resurrection was a transformative event for the early church, providing hope and assurance of eternal life. It fulfills Jesus' own predictions and Old Testament prophecies, such as Hosea 6:2. The resurrection is a testament to God's power and faithfulness, offering believers the promise of new life in Christ.

(34) Shall spit upon him.--In common with St. Luke, but not with St. Matthew.
