“And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,”
Matthew 27:39 (KJV)
Commentary on Matthew 27:39
They that passed by reviled him (ἐβλασφήμουν, eblasphēmoun)—literally blasphemed, hurled insults at him. Wagging their heads (κινοῦντες τὰς κεφαλὰς, kinountes tas kephalas)—the ancient gesture of mockery and contempt, fulfilling Psalm 22:7: All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head.Golgotha was near a main road; Passover crowds stream past. The Suffering Servant endures not only physical agony but public scorn. He who taught blessed are ye, when men shall revile you (Matthew 5:11) now experiences ultimate reviling.
