Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:32
And there were also two others, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.This was Pilate's doing, and was probably designed as an insult to the Jews who would not have been favorable to such executions in such proximity to their great Passover (that night); but God overruled this vengeful deed of the governor in the fulfillment of prophecy. "He was numbered with the transgressors," and "he made his grave with the wicked" (Isaiah 53:12,9). read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:33
And when they came unto the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left.THE CRUCIFIXIONNone of the Gospel writers dwelt upon the horrors of the terrible death; and perhaps their restraint should be a caution to all people. The crucifixion of the Christ had been prophesied the better part of a millenium before it occurred, in Psalms 22, at a point in history when such a means of execution had never been invented.... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:34
And Jesus said, Father, forgive them: for they know not what they do. And parting his garments among them, they cast lots.Father, forgive them, etc. ... This was the first of the seven utterances of Jesus from the cross; and it has the utility of indicating two centers of forgiveness, one on the earth, the other in heaven. It may not be supposed that Jesus' prayer for the forgiveness of the soldiers who crucified him implied their immediate forgiveness in heaven. Jesus, AS A MAN, forgave them;... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:35
And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also scoffed at him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen.What the rulers meant by this was evil, and it was also untrue in the sense in which they meant it. Jesus could indeed have saved himself by coming down from the cross, because he did a far more wonderful thing three days later by coming out of the grave. However, it was not possible for Christ thus to save himself (by coming down from the... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:36
And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, offering him vinegar, and saying, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.Spence observed that there were three instances of vinegar being offered to Jesus, as follows:(1) There was a draught prepared with narcotics and stupefying drugs (Matthew 27:34), which Jesus refused. (2) The one here mentioned in Luke...was one of the tortures of the crucifixion, (the soldiers) lifting sour wine to his lips and then whisking it rapidly away. (3) The... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 23:38
And there was also a superscription over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.Harrison said that "The full inscription was probably: THIS IS JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS."[21] Of course, this is most certainly correct, being a composite of what all four of the sacred Gospels have recorded. For a fuller discussion of this, see my Commentary on Matthew, Matthew 27:37.The notion that Pilate believed, even in the slightest degree, that Christ was a claimant of Caesar's throne, is rejected,... read more
