39 And those passing by were hurling abuse at Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.” 41 In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking Him and saying, 42 “He saved others; He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in Him. 43 He trusts in God; let God rescue Him now, if He delights in Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

They missed it...Jesus laid down his own life. He had demonstrated multiple times that when they wanted to catch him they could not (see John 8:59, 10:39 & Luke 4:30). Jesus told his disciples many times he was going to lay down his life and more importantly take it up again. John 10:17-18
What is is that we miss the point on? Lord, open our eyes so that we may see who you are and how you want to change me!
These short thoughts have helped me to meditate on Scripture every day...mostly for me, but you can look in too!
