Matthew Henry · Verse 29
The unbelief of man shall not make God's threatenings of no effect. Christ himself, when bearing sins not his own, was not spared. Justice and judgment took hold of our blessed Surety; and will God spare obstinate sinners?
Proverbs 19:29
Penalties are prepared for scoffers, and beatings for the backs of fools.
