And with him they crucified two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
All Commentaries on Mark 15:27 Go To Mark 15
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
Amid the courtroom of the cross, one robber who believed was freed, the other who insulted him was condemned. He was then signifying in advance what he would do concerning the living and the dead, putting some on his right and some on his left. The one robber was like to those who would be on the left; the other, to those who would be on the right. He who was being judged was anticipating final judgment.
