Interwoven Gospels And the people stood looking on. And they that passed by railed at Him, wagging their heads, and saying, "Aha! Thou that destroyest the temple and rebuildest it in three days, save Thyself. If Thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross." Likewise also the chief priests, mocking among themselves, with the scribes and elders, said, "He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If This is the Christ of God, His chosen, let Him save Himself. Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see, and we will believe on Him. He trusteth on God; let Him deliver Him now, if He delighteth In Him: for He said, 'I am the Son of God." And a robber also who was crucified with Him reproached Him with the same thing. And the soldiers also mocked Him, coming to Him and offering Him vinegar, and saying, "If Thou art the King of the Jews, save Thyself." Adapted from The Interwoven Gospels © Books for Living, Inc.
