Continuity: In the scene where the Roman soldiers are whipping Jesus and they take him off the post, there are no marks on his back, then the shot changes to when they are putting the red cloth on him, he has two huge gashes on his shoulder, but his chest doesn't have any gashes. Then in the scene right after that, he is walking towards Pilate, and he has many marks on his chest.
