“They stripped him…and knelt in front of him and mocked him. ‘Hail, king of the Jews!’ they said. They spit on him, and took the staff and struck him on the head again and again.”
Matthew 27:28 & 30
They divided Your garments
and cast lots for Your clothes.
Stripped of all dignity.
Humiliation
Shame
You had nothing of Your own.
By Your despoilment, Lord
clothe us in Your grace and mercy
which is rich beyond words and
all earthly possessions.
