Luke 23:34

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Luke 23:34. Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

It was all that he could say in their favor, and he did say that. If there is anything to be said in thy favor, O my fellow-sinner, Christ will say it; and if there is nothing good in thee that his eyes can light upon, he will pray or his own account, "Father, forgive them for my sake."

Luke 23:34. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

His garments were the executioners’ perquisites; pitilessly they took them from him, and left him naked in his shameful sorrow.
