Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Matthew 27:47

Some of them that stood there, when they heard [that], said, This [man] calleth for (p) Elias.

(p) They allude to Elias' name, not because they did not understand what he said, but because of a profane impudence and disrespect, and he repeated those words so that this repetition of the name might be understood.
