Two other
The possible omission of a comma before malefactors in the A. V. might make a very awkward and unpleasant statement. Better Rev., two others, malefactors.
Put to death (ἀναιρεθῆναι)
Lit., to take up and carry away; so that the Greek idiom answers to our taken off. So Shakspeare:
"The deep damnation of his taking off."
Macbeth, i., 7.
"Let her who would be rid of him, devise
His speedy taking off."
Lear, v., 1. |

38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
