Mark 15:30 - Forerunner Commentary

Mark 15:30

28 ¹So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ^a“And He was numbered with the transgressors.”

29 And ^athose who passed by blasphemed Him, ^bwagging their heads and saying, “Aha! ^cYou who destroy the temple and build it in three days,

30 save Yourself, and come down from the cross!”

31 Likewise the chief priests also, ^amocking among themselves with the scribes, said, “He saved ^bothers; Himself He cannot save.

32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and¹ believe.” Even ^athose who were crucified with Him reviled Him.

Jesus Dies on the Cross

33 Now ^awhen the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, ^a“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
