Mark 15:19
King James Version
9 Jun 2026
“And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.”
τύπτω
to "thump", i.e. cudgel or pummel (properly, with a stick or bastinado), but in any case by repeated blows; thus differing from G3817 (παίω) and G3960 (πατάσσω), which denote a (usually single) blow with the hand or any instrument, or G4141 (πλήσσω) with the fist (or a hammer), or G4474 (ῥαπίζω) with the palm; as well as from G5177 (τυγχάνω), an accidental collision); by implication, to punish; figuratively, to offend (the conscience)
