Luke 23:30-32
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
30 At-that-time they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us’, and to the hills, ‘Cover us’. 31 Because if they are doing these things in-the-case-of the wet wood[a], what will happen in-the-case-of the dry[b]?” 32 And two other[c] criminals were also being led to be executed with Him.

- Luke 23:31 Or, green tree. That is, Jesus.
- Luke 23:31 That is, unbelieving Israel. If the Innocent One is made to die, what will happen to guilty Israel? The answer came in a.d. 70 when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem.
- Luke 23:32 That is, others of a different kind. Luke may be stating it this way in fulfillment of 22:37. Or, this may be punctuated to avoid classing Jesus as a criminal, ‘And others were also being led, two criminals, to be executed with Him’.
