Notes on Lesson for November 25.

"And they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him." The words imply continued or repeated mockery. In that vast, royal hall some hundreds of soldiers passed in procession before him, each kneeling, each in mockery saluting him as "the king of the Jews," till as their excitement increased they spat upon him, following the example of the chief priests (Matt. 26: 67), and, taking the scepter from his hand, smote him on the head repeatedly.
