MATTHEW 27:43 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.”
He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him. For he said, I am the Son of God. The Psalm 22:8 echo: he trusts in the Lord; let him deliver him, let him rescue him, for he delights in him. The chief priests quote the psalm of the righteous sufferer against the righteous sufferer without recognizing that they are enacting the psalm's persecution. The for he said, I am the Son of God circles back to the Sanhedrin charge of blasphemy.
