The Scourging at the Pillar
Spiritual Fruit: Mortification of the Senses & Purity
"Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him. "He was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace.""
Contemplation on The Scourging at the Pillar
Jesus patiently suffers brutal physical scourging at the pillar for the sins of all humanity.
As we recite the ten Hail Marys of this decade, we fix our interior gaze upon this mystery of Christ's life. We ask for the grace to embody its spiritual fruit, Mortification of the Senses & Purity, in our daily lives.
Sealing the Decade with the Glory Be
At the close of the ten Hail Marys for this decade, we stand in spirit with the Blessed Mother and offer all our contemplation back to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with the Glory Be (Gloria Patri), acknowledging that all holiness flows from and returns to the Blessed Trinity.
