Taunt
In Jeremiah 24:9; Ezekiel 5:15; and Habakkuk 2:6, taunting signifies the profanation committed by people who will not be reformed, but still desire to be in worship from the Word. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms, 90, 128, 226)
Matthew 20:22-23
22
But Jesus answered, "You don't know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?" They said to him, "We are able."
23
He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with, but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
