“How similar these devils incarnate were to those who mocked the Christ! He too was smitten upon the cheek, gnashed at, and spat upon. He too was artfully questioned by unscrupulous and double-tongued lawyers and priests. He too chose to remain silent rather than dignify their cunning inquisition with answers. And he too was taunted for not having the power to save himself from the agonies of the cross” (McConkie and Millet, Doctrinal Commentary, 3:111).
