Contextual Overview

22 And they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. 23 And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh: but he did not receive it. 24 And they crucify him, and part his garments among them, casting lots on them, what each should take. 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 And with him they crucify two robbers; one on his right hand, and one on his left. 29 And those that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ha! You that destroy the temple, and build it in three days, 30 save yourself, and come down from the cross. 31 In like manner also the chief priests mocking [him] among themselves with the scribes said, He saved others; himself he can't save. 32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe. And those that were crucified with him reproached him.
