Sorrowful Mysteries

Second Mystery: The Scourging at the Pillar

“So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.”John 19:1

Pilate has Jesus scourged. The innocent Lamb of God bears the blows in silence, offering His suffering for our sins.

Fruit of the mystery: Purity · mortification

The Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
