some began to spit on him--or, as in Mat 26:67, "to spit in [into] His face." Luke (Luk 22:63) says in addition, "And the men that held Jesus mocked him"--or cast their jeers at Him. (Also see on Joh 18:28.)
to cover his face--or "to blindfold him" (as in Luk 22:64).
to buffet him--Luke's word, which is rendered "smote Him" (Luk 22:63), is a stronger one, conveying an idea for which we have an exact equivalent in English, but one too colloquial to be inserted here.
began to say unto him, Prophesy--In Matthew (Mat 26:68) this is given more fully: "Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote Thee?" The sarcastic fling at Him as "the Christ," and the demand of Him in this character to name the unseen perpetrator of the blows inflicted on Him, was in them as infamous as to Him it must have been, and was intended to be, stinging.
and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands--or "struck Him on the face" (Luk 22:64). Ah! Well did He say prophetically, in that Messianic prediction which we have often referred to, "I gave My back to the smiters, and My cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not My face from shame and spitting!" (Isa 50:6). "And many other things blasphemously spake they against Him" (Luk 22:65). This general statement is important, as showing that virulent and varied as were the recorded affronts put upon Him, they are but a small specimen of what He endured on that dark occasion.

66 And [2532] as Peter [4074] was [5607] beneath [2736] in [1722] the palace [833], there cometh [2064] one [3391] of the maids [3814] of the high priest [749]:
67 And [2532] when she saw [1492] Peter [4074] warming himself [2328], she looked [1689] upon him [846], and said [3004], And [2532] thou [4771] also [2532] wast [2258] with [3326] Jesus [2424] of Nazareth [3479].
68 But [1161] he denied [720], saying [3004], I know [1492] not [3756], neither [3761] understand I [1987] what [5101] thou [4771] sayest [3004]. And [2532] he went [1831] out [1854] into [1519] the porch [4259]; and [2532] the cock [220] crew [5455].
65 And [2532] many [4183] other things [2087] blasphemously [987] spake they [3004] against [1519] him [846].
6 I gave [05414] my back [01460] to the smiters [05221], and my cheeks [03895] to them that plucked off [04803] the hair: I hid [05641] not my face [06440] from shame [03639] and spitting [07536].
64 And [2532] when they had blindfolded [4028] him [846], they struck [5180] him [846] on the face [4383], and [2532] asked [1905] him [846], saying [3004], Prophesy [4395], who [5101] is it [2076] that smote [3817] thee [4571]?
68 Saying [3004], Prophesy [4395] unto us [2254], thou Christ [5547], Who [5101] is he [2076] that smote [3817] thee [4571]?
63 And [2532] the men [435] that held [4912] Jesus [2424] mocked [1702] him [846], and smote [1194] him.
64 And [2532] when they had blindfolded [4028] him [846], they struck [5180] him [846] on the face [4383], and [2532] asked [1905] him [846], saying [3004], Prophesy [4395], who [5101] is it [2076] that smote [3817] thee [4571]?
28 Then [3767] led they [71] Jesus [2424] from [575] Caiaphas [2533] unto [1519] the hall of judgment [4232]: and [1161] it was [2258] early [4405]; and [2532] they themselves [846] went [1525] not [3756] into [1519] the judgment hall [4232], lest [3363] they should be defiled [3392]; but [235] that [2443] they might eat [5315] the passover [3957].
63 And [2532] the men [435] that held [4912] Jesus [2424] mocked [1702] him [846], and smote [1194] him.
67 Then [5119] did they spit [1716] in [1519] his [846] face [4383], and [2532] buffeted [2852] him [846]; and [1161] others smote him with the palms of their hands [4474],
11 And [2532] I saw [1492] a great [3173] white [3022] throne [2362], and [2532] him that sat [2521] on [1909] it [846], from [575] whose [3739] face [4383] the earth [1093] and [2532] the heaven [3772] fled away [5343]; and [2532] there was found [2147] no [3756] place [5117] for them [846].
14 As many [07227] were astonied [08074] at thee; his visage [04758] was so marred [04893] more than any man [0376], and his form [08389] more than the sons [01121] of men [0120]:
6 I gave [05414] my back [01460] to the smiters [05221], and my cheeks [03895] to them that plucked off [04803] the hair: I hid [05641] not my face [06440] from shame [03639] and spitting [07536].
3 And [2532] said [3004], Hail [5463], King [935] of the Jews [2453]! and [2532] they smote [1325] him [846] with their hands [4475].
67 Then [5119] did they spit [1716] in [1519] his [846] face [4383], and [2532] buffeted [2852] him [846]; and [1161] others smote him with the palms of their hands [4474],
