Contextual Overview

32 And there were coming with him two others, malefactors, to be put to death. 33 And when they came to a place which is called The Skull, they crucified him there, and the malefactors, one on his right and one on his left. 34 And Jesus said, O Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing. And they divided his garments and cast lots over them. 35 The people stood looking on. And even the leaders of the synagogue mocked him, and said, He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ, the chosen one of God. 36 And the soldiers ridiculed him, as they came near him and offered him vinegar, 37 Saying to him, If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself. 38 There was also an inscription which was written over him, in Greek and Roman, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. 39 Now one of the malefactors who were crucified with him, blasphemed against him, saying, If you are the Christ, save yourself and save us also. 40 But the other rebuked him, and said to him, Do you not fear even God, for you are also in the same judgment? 41 And ours is just, for we are paid as we deserve and as we have done; but he has done nothing wrong.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And we indeed justly,.... For sins committed against the law; our sentence is just, we are righteously punished: which shows that he had a true sense of sin; for where that is, there will be not only an acknowledgment of the offence, but a vindication of the justice of God, should he proceed to deal according to the demerit of sin: for we receive the due reward of our deeds; though, according to the law of Moses, theft was not punishable with death, but with a restoration, either double, or fourfold, or fivefold, according to the nature of it; see Exodus 22:1. It may be these men had committed murder along with the robbery:

but this man hath done nothing amiss; or absurd, unreasonable, wicked, and detestable: he did no injury to God, or man; wronged no man's person or property; did all things well; obeyed the law of God perfectly, and always did the things which were pleasing to God. Thus, from the mouth of one of the malefactors Christ suffered with, was he declared innocent; when the Jews designed, by crucifying him with them, to have led the people to have believed that he suffered for a crime equal, or superior to theirs.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Due reward of our deeds - The proper punishment for our crimes. They had been highwaymen, and it was just that they should die.
