Commentary on Psalms 22:8

Theological / Devotional

Trusted. Literally, “rolled”; that is, committed, entrusted himself (see Ps. 37:5; Prov. 16:3). This taunt was actually quoted by the scribes and elders who watched the crucifixion, and applied to Christ’s humiliation on the cross (see Matt. 27:43).
