Church of the Scourging - Good Friday of our Pilgrimage to the Holy Land

Then he released Barabbas to them.

But he had Jesus flogged,

and handed him over to be crucified.

This is the remains of the scourging pole
upon which Jesus was tied and beaten
so severely that:

There were many who were appalled at
him -- his appearance was so disfigured
beyond that of any man and his form
marred beyond human likeness.
(Isaiah 52:14)
