(1 Kg 12:11). Variously administered. In no case were the stripes to exceed forty (Deut 25:3; comp. 2Cor 11:24). In the time of the apostles, in consequence of the passing of what was called the Porcian law, no Roman citizen could be scourged in any case (Acts 16:22-37). (See BASTINADO.) In the scourging of our Lord (Mt 27:26; Mk 15:15) the words of prophecy (Isa 53:5) were fulfilled.
