Mark states that soldiers “would hit him on the head with a reed and spit upon him and, bending their knees [in mockery], they would do obeisance to him. ”
وَأَضَافَ أَنَّ ٱلْجُنُودَ رَاحُوا « يَضْرِبُونَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ بِقَصَبَةٍ وَيَبْصُقُونَ عَلَيْهِ وَيَسْجُدُونَ لَهُ [ٱسْتِهْزَاءً بِهِ] جَاثِينَ عَلَى رُكَبِهِمْ » .‏
