Matthew 27:44
Matthew 27:44 The thieves also, . . . cast the same in his teeth. Luke only tells of the penitence of one (Luke 23:39-43). Doubtless, both at first reviled him, but one was converted in three hours that they hung side by side.
42 “He asaved others; Himself He cannot save.1 If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe2 Him.
43 aHe trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 aEven the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
Jesus Dies on the Cross
45 aNow from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.
46 And about the ninth hour aJesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, b“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
