Mark 15:17

17 Then they put a dark red coat on Jesus. They used some branches with thorns to make a crown for him. They put it on his head.

15:17A crown is usually a special hat that a king wears. But this crown had sharp bits and it was painful for Jesus to wear it. The dark red coat was also like the coat that a king wore. The soldiers did not believe that Jesus was really a king.
