Matthew 27:40-42

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁰ saying, “You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days. So save yourself! Come down from that cross, if you are really the Son of God!”

⁴¹ The leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the Jewish elders were also there. These men made fun of Jesus ⁴² and said, “He saved other people, but he can’t save himself! People say he is the King of Israel! If he is the King, then let him come down now from the cross. Then we will believe in him.
