Matthew 27:42 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

He saved others. — The mockers, as before (comp. John 11:50-51), bear unconscious witness to the truth. They referred, it may be, to the works of healing and the raising of the dead which had been wrought in Galilee and Jerusalem, but their words were true in a yet higher sense. He had come into the world to save others, regardless of Himself.

Matthew 27:42

42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
