Matt. 27:39‑44• 39And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
 40And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
 41Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
 42He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
 43He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

• The triumph of misery (vers. 24-27). (“Job 3-31” by S. Ridout)
• Verse 24—whose meaning is obscure in the A. V.—has been rendered: “No prayer availeth when He stretcheth out His hand; though they cry when He destroyeth.” That is, it is useless to cry to Him for pity, for He will not regard the prayer of those upon whose destruction He is bent. It is a most hopeless view of God, of which Job has shown he is quite capable. (“Job 3-31” by S. Ridout)
