John Trapp on Matthew 27:43

Verse 43. He trusted in God] These were cruell mockings, as those were called, Heb. 11. 36. Nothing troubled David more then to be hit in the teeth with his God: to have his Religion laid in his dish, Psal. 42. & 43. And it went to Jobs heart to hear his friend Eliphaz (a godly man otherwise,) scoffe him for his Religion, Job 4. 6. Is not thy fear (or thy Religion) become thy folly? Zeackiah feared more to be mocked of the Jews, then the Caldees, Jer. 38. 9. Let him deliver him now] But what if he do not deliver him now, is he therefore no sonne? So they would seem to argue: and so Satan would fain perswade the Saints when [illegible: 1 word] a while under the crosse. But the Apostle assures us otherwise, Heb. 12. 6, 7, 8. See my Love-tokens.
