SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:38

Y había tambin sobre l un título escrito con letras griegas, y romanas, y hebraicas: ESTE ES EL REY DE LOS JUDIOS.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 23:38

Verse 38. A
superscription] See Matt. xxvii. 37.

ln letters of Greek, and Latin and Hebrew] The inscription was written in all these languages, which were the most common, that all might see the reason why he was put to death. The inscription was written in Greek, on account of the Hellenistic Jews, who were then at Jerusalem because of the passover; it was written in Latin, that being the language of the government under which he was crucified; and it was written in Hebrew, that being the language of the place in which this deed of darkness was committed. But, by the good providence of God, the inscription itself exculpated him, and proved the Jews to be rebels against, and murderers of, their king. See the note on Matt. xxvii. 37. It is not to be wondered at that they wished Pilate to alter this inscription, John xix. 21, as it was a record of their infamy.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 38. And a superscription also was written , etc.] Containing the crime he was charged with, and accused of; (see Gill on Matthew 27:37); (see Gill on John 19:19-20).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 32-43 - As soon as
Christ was fastened to the cross, he prayed for those wh crucified him. The great thing he died to purchase and procure for us is the forgiveness of sin. This he prays for. Jesus was crucifie between two thieves; in them were shown the different effects the cros of Christ would have upon the children of men in the preaching the gospel. One malefactor was hardened to the last. No troubles of themselves will change a wicked heart. The other was softened at the last: he was snatched as a brand out of the burning, and made monument of Divine mercy. This gives no encouragement to any to put of repentance to their death-beds, or to hope that they shall then fin mercy. It is certain that true repentance is never too late; but it is as certain that late repentance is seldom true. None can be sure the shall have time to repent at death, but every man may be sure he cannot have the advantages this penitent thief had. We shall see the case to be singular, if we observe the uncommon effects of God's grace upo this man. He reproved the other for railing on Christ. He owned that he deserved what was done to him. He believed Jesus to have suffere wrongfully. Observe his faith in this prayer. Christ was in the dept of disgrace, suffering as a deceiver, and not delivered by his Father He made this profession before the wonders were displayed which pu honour on Christ's sufferings, and startled the centurion. He believe in a life to come, and desired to be happy in that life; not like the other thief, to be only saved from the cross. Observe his humility in this prayer. All his request is, Lord, remember me; quite referring it to Jesus in what way to remember him. Thus he was humbled in tru repentance, and he brought forth all the fruits for repentance his circumstances would admit. Christ upon the cross, is gracious lik Christ upon the throne. Though he was in the greatest struggle an agony, yet he had pity for a poor penitent. By this act of grace we ar to understand that Jesus Christ died to open the kingdom of heaven to all penitent, obedient believers. It is a single instance in Scripture it should teach us to despair of none, and that none should despair of themselves; but lest it should be abused, it is contrasted with the awful state of the other thief, who died hardened in unbelief, though crucified Saviour was so near him. Be sure that in general men die a they live.

Superstition. See on Mark xv. 26.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

23:38 {A
superscription} (epigrafe). #Mr 15:26 has "the superscription of his accusation" #Mt 27:37, "his accusation," #Joh 19:19 "a title." But they all refer to the charge written at the top on the cross giving, as was the custom, the accusation on which the criminal was condemned, with his name and residence. Put all the reports together and we have: this is Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews. this full title appeared in Latin for law, in Aramaic for the Jews, in Greek for everybody (#Joh 19:20).
