Jesus is beaten:
Jesus was beaten badly by the soldiers; today we call this kind of beating “receiving stripes” . Jesus was then put on the cross, and he was dying the soldiers pierced him in the side with a side.

“But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.”
- Isaiah 53v5.
