This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mat 27:28. Χλαμύδα κοκκίνην, a crimson robe) They make sport of His kingdom, as the Jews had done of His prophetical dignity; ch. Mat 26:68. It is called πορφύραν, purple, in Mar 15:17, and ἱμάτιον πορφυροῦν, a purple garment, in Joh 19:2. Sometimes these words are used promiscuously; sometimes they differ, as in Rev 17:4. The one colour also used formerly to be superinduced upon the other.
