Contextual Overview

63Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking Him while they beat Him, 64and they blindfolded Him and were asking Him, saying, "Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?" 65And they were saying many other things against Him, blaspheming. 66And as the day came, the Council of elders of the people assembled, both chief priests and scribes, and they led Him away to their Sanhedrin, saying, 67"If You are the Christ, tell us." But He said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe, 68and if I ask a question, you will not answer. 69But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God." 70And they all said, "Are You the Son of God, then?" And He said to them, "You yourselves say that I am." 71Then they said, "What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when they had blindfolded him,.... Or put a veil, or linen cloth over his eyes, as children do at play, to make themselves some sport with him:

they struck him on the face; on that part of it which was not covered, either with their hands, or with rods:

and asked him, saying, prophesy, who is it that smote thee? hereby deriding his prophetic office, and using such language as children do at blindman's buff; :-.
