Mark 15:25-3225 It was nine in the morning when they crucified him. 26 The written notice of the charge against him read: the king of the jews.27 They crucified two rebels with him, one on his right and one on his left. [28] 29 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, \u201cSo! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, 30 come down from the cross and save yourself!\u201d 31 In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him among themselves. \u201cHe saved others,\u201d they said, \u201cbut he can\u2019t save himself! 32 Let this Messiah, this king of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.\u201d Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
