MARK 15:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,”
Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, so! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days — the passersby who hurl insults fulfill Psalm 22:7 (all who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads). The specific insult — the temple claim — is the distorted testimony from the Sanhedrin trial (Mark 14:58). The mockers at the cross are the witnesses whose testimony couldn't agree, now reduced to taunting.
