Contextual Overview

³³ They all came to the place called Golgotha, which means the Place of the Skull. ³⁴ The soldiers gave Jesus wine mixed with gall to drink. He tasted the wine but refused to drink it. ³⁵ When the soldiers had crucified him, they threw lots to decide who would get his clothes. ³⁶ The soldiers sat there and continued watching him. ³⁷ They put a sign above Jesus' head with a charge against him. It said: this is jesus, the king of the jews . ³⁸ Two robbers were crucified beside Jesus, one on the right and the other on the left. ³⁹ People walked by and insulted Jesus and shook their heads, ⁴⁰ saying, "You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days. So save yourself! Come down from that cross if you are really the Son of God!" ⁴¹ The leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the Jewish elders were also making fun of Jesus. ⁴² They said, "He saved others, but he can't save himself! He says he is the king of Israel! If he is the king, let him come down now from the cross. Then we will believe in him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then were there two thieves crucified with him,.... Which seems contrary to one of their canons, which runs thus; ביום אחד

אין דנין שנים, "they do not judge two in one day" y, unless they were both in the same crime, and died the same death: but here were three persons, Jesus, and these two malefactors, condemned and executed in one, and the same day: these two thieves were led out with Jesus, to be put to death with him, according to Luke 23:32, and were crucified with him upon the same spot of ground; their death was the same, but not their crime:

one the right hand, and another on the left; and Jesus in the midst, as John relates, John 19:18, and hereby was fulfilled, as Mark observes, Mark 15:28, a prophecy in Isaiah 53:12. If this was so ordered by Pilate, it might be done in order to cover the sin, and take off the reproach of putting an innocent person to death, suggesting hereby he was one of them; though this seems rather to be done by the Jews, the soldiers agreeing to it, for the greater reproach of Jesus; intimating, that he was the worst of these malefactors, and a ringleader of such sort of persons: and whereas they had observed, he took it ill at their hands that they should come to apprehend him with swords and staves, as if he was a thief and a robber; to vex and distress him the more, they crucify him between two such persons: but the grand reason why it was so ordered, was, that though Christ was no transgressor, he was accounted one, and stood in the room and stead of sinners, and was numbered with them, and as such was treated by divine justice, and accordingly died for them.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Two thieves crucified ... - Rather two “robbers.” Pilate did not reside in Jerusalem. When he came there on the great feasts, or at other times, it was, in part, to hold courts for the trial of criminals. These robbers had been probably condemned at that time; and to show greater contempt for Jesus, he was crucified between men of that abandoned character, and on a cross that should have been occupied by their companion and leader, Barabbas.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 38. Two thieves — λησται, 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.
