He saved others, he cannot save himself. If he is the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in him.

And one of the malefactors who were hanged railed him, saying, If thou are the Christ, save thyself and us.
And the inscription of his accusation was inscribed, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
