Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor's headquarters... and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head...and kneeling before Him, they mocked Him.
-Matthew 27:27-29
_________________________________________________________________________________
After Jesus had been whipped, the soldiers took branches with thorns, twisted them into the shape of a crown, and shoved it down on Jesus' head. Again, Jesus bled.
We know that because Jesus was the Son of God, He could have stopped the men from hurting Him. But He let them continue. Do you know why? Because even though He hadn't done anything wrong-He had not sinned-Jesus was taking the punishment for all the wrong things that any person had ever done or ever would do. This includes you and me.
