42 "He saved others; himself he cannot save!" "If he is ‘King of Israel’ let him come down from the cross now and we will believe him!"This was a lie; they already knew that Jesus was the Messiah but had deliberately rejected Him. However, if Jesus had descended from the cross (as presumably He had the power to do) we would be without hope. The people were being satanically nasty, but Jesus was totally committed to the Father’s will and thus the redemptive program was not aborted.
