22:63 {20} And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote [him].
(20) Christ bore the shame that was due for our sins.
22:63-65 Mocked him, and smote [him], etc. For notes on these indignities, see PNT Mt 26:67.
22:63 Mt 26:67; Mr 14:65.
22:63-71 Those that condemned Jesus for a blasphemer, were the vilest blasphemers. He referred them to his second coming, for the full proof of his being the Christ, to their confusion, since they would not admit the proof of it to their conviction. He owns himself to be the Son of God, though he knew he should suffer for it. Upon this they ground his condemnation. Their eyes being blinded, they rush on. Let us meditate on this amazing transaction, and consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against himself.
