This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Now come down (katabatō nun). Now that he is nailed to the cross.
That we may see and believe (hina idōmen kai pisteusōmen). Aorist subjunctive of purpose with hina. They use almost the very language of Jesus in their ridicule, words that they had heard him use in his appeals to men to see and believe.
Reproached him (ōneidizon auton). Imperfect tense. They did it several times. Mark and Matthew both fail to give the story of the robber who turned to Christ on the Cross as told in Luk 23:39-43.
