The Gospels describe the scourging of Jesus in different levels of detail. Here are a few key verses:
* Matthew 27:26: "Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged and handed him over to be crucified." (NIV)
* Mark 15:15: "Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified." (NIV)
* John 19:1: "Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged." (NIV)
These verses all describe the scourging (flogging) of Jesus at the order of Pilate before his crucifixion. Note that John's account is the most concise, simply stating that Pilate had him flogged. Matthew and Mark offer similar accounts, mentioning the release of Barabbas and then Jesus being flogged before being handed over for crucifixion.
