“Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,”
Matthew 27:41 (KJV)
Commentary on Matthew 27:41
The chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders—the Sanhedrin members who condemned Jesus now gloat at his execution. Mocking (ἐμπαίζοντες, empaizontes)—the same word used when they mocked him after the trial (Matthew 27:29). Their presence is calculated cruelty—ensuring their enemy's destruction.These religious leaders, who should shepherd Israel, mock the Good Shepherd. They who study Scripture daily fail to recognize Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53 being fulfilled before their eyes. Spiritual blindness reaches its apex: they reject Messiah while standing at Messiah's cross.
