Church Fathers on Matthew 27:34

After the Evangelist had narrated what concerned the mocking of Christ, he proceeds to His crucifixion.

Gloss (Glossa Ordinaria) · medieval compilation · non occ.

This is to be understood to have been done at the end of all when He was led off to crucifixion after Pilate had delivered Him up to the Jews.

Augustine · 4th century · de Cons. Ev., iii, 9

It is to be noted, that when Jesus is scourged and spit upon, He has not on His own garments, but those which He took for our sins; but when He is crucified, and the show of His mockery is completed, then He takes again His former garments, and His own dress, and immediately the elements are shaken, and the creature gives testimony to the Creator.
