John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:49

The rest said, let be ,.... The others, to whom he belonged, that fetched the sponge, said to him, let him alone, keep at a distance from him, give him nothing to drink: let us see whether Elias will come to save him ; whom the Jews looked upon to be the forerunner of the Messiah, and therefore suggest, that should he come to save him, they would believe he was the Messiah; and they had a mighty notion of Elias appearing to persons frequently F19 Vid.

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:50

Jesus, when he had cried again ,.... "A second time", as the Persic version; for he had cried once before, and expressed the words he did, as in Matthew 27:46 , what he now delivered were, "Father, into thy hands I commend my Spirit", Luke 23:46 , and "it is finished", John 19:30 , which he said with a loud voice ; which showed the vehemency of his affection, his strong confidence in God, and his being fearless of death; as also he thus spoke, that he might be heard, and his words... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:33

A place called Golgotha - From the Hebrew גלגתה or גלגלת , golgoleth , a skull, probably so called from the many skulls of these who had suffered crucifixion and other capital punishments scattered up and down in the place. It is the same as Calvary, Calvaria, i.e. calvi capitis area , the place of bare skulls. Some think the place was thus called, because it was in the form of a human skull. It is likely that it was the place of public execution, similar to the Gemoniae Scalae at... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:34

They gave him vinegar - mingled with gall - Perhaps χολη , commonly translated gall, signifies no more than bitters of any kind. It was a common custom to administer a stupefying potion compounded of sour wine, which is the same as vinegar, from the French vinaigre , frankincense, and myrrh, to condemned persons, to help to alleviate their sufferings, or so disturb their intellect that they might not be sensible of them. The rabbins say that they put a grain of frankincense into a cup of... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:35

And they crucified him - Crucifixion properly means the act of nailing or tying to a cross. The cross was made of two beams, either crossing at the top at right angles, like a T, or in the middle of their length, like an X. There was, besides, a piece on the center of the transverse beam, to which the accusation or statement of the crime of the culprit was attached, and a piece of wood which projected from the middle, on which the person sat, as on a sort of saddle; and by which the whole... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:37

His accusation - It was a common custom to affix a label to the cross, giving a statement of the crime for which the person suffered. This is still the case in China, when a person is crucified. Sometimes a person was employed to carry this before the criminal, while going to the place of punishment. It is with much propriety that Matthew calls this αιτια , accusation; for it was false that ever Christ pretended to be King Of The Jews, in the sense the inscription held forth: he was... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:38

Two thieves - ΛῃϚαι , robbers, or cutthroats: men who had committed robbery and murder; for it does not appear that persons were crucified for robbery only. Thus was our Lord numbered (his name enrolled, placed as it were in the death warrant) with transgressors, according to the prophetic declaration, Isaiah 53:12 ; and the Jews placed him between these two, perhaps to intimate that he was the worst felon of the three. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:40

Thou that destroyest - Who didst pretend that thou couldst have destroyed the temple, and built it up again in three days. This malicious torturing of our Lord's words has been noticed before. Cruelty is obliged to take refuge in lies, in order to vindicate its infamous proceedings. If thou be the Son of God - Or rather, Υἱος του Θεου A son of God, i.e. a peculiar favorite of the Most-High; not Ὁ Υἱος του Θεου , The Son of God. "It is not to be conceived," says a learned man,... read more
