Similarly, Mark writes that they “crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left” (v. 27). The unusual emphasis that Mark places on the location of Jesus might have been intended to provide typological value. Jesus’s location between the thieves seems to echo the Day of Atonement when both the blood and the divine presence hidden under the cloud of incense stood between the two cherubim on the ark of the covenant (Lev 16:15). Later, we will find similar uses of this typology in John’s gospel and Paul’s Letter to the Romans.
