This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Mat 27:37. Ἐστιν, is) Yes; He truly is so! The inscription, perhaps, remained longer on the cross than the body of Jesus.[1196]

[1196] δυο λῃσταὶ, two robbers) Matthew and Mark mention their crucifixion at a later point of time than the other two Evangelists; from which we may infer that the crucifixion of Jesus was regarded by Pilate and his subordinates as the principal and most important case.-Harm., p. 567.
