Commentary on Matthew 27:43
He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him—quoting Psalm 22:8 almost verbatim, yet blind to its prophetic nature. For he said, I am the Son of God—they accurately report Jesus's claim (Matthew 26:63-64) while mocking it.The darkest irony: God WILL deliver him—through death into resurrection. The Father's silence (soon to be broken by earthquake and torn veil) is not absence but sovereign plan. Jesus trusts the Father even when the Father hides his face (v. 46). Trust persists through forsakenness—the deepest mystery of the cross.
