Contextual Overview

22 So they brought Him to the place called Golgotha, which, being translated, means `Skull-ground.' 23 Here they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh; but He refused it. 24 Then they crucified Him. This done, they divided His garments among them, drawing lots to decide what each should take. 25 It was nine o'clock in the morning when they crucified Him. 26 Over His head was the notice in writing of the charge against Him: THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 And together with Jesus they crucified two robbers, one at His right hand and one at His left. 28 [] 29 And all the passers-by reviled Him. They shook their heads at Him and said, "Ah! you who were for destroying the Sanctuary and building a new one in three days, 30 come down from the cross and save yourself." 31 In the same way the High Priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on scoffing at Him, saying to one another, "He has saved others: himself he cannot save!
