Show Notes

Today’s episode describes the scene of Jesus' crucifixion and the events that followed. We linger on the tearing of the temple veil and the resurrection of the saints, which is mentioned in Matthew 27:52-53. The resurrection of the saints is one of the strangest passages in the Gospel of Matthew, and it is not mentioned in any other source. 

 

The tearing of the temple curtain and the resurrection of the saints are significant events that demonstrate the power of God and the significance of Jesus' death. The tearing of the veil shows that the way into God's presence was opened, and the resurrection of the saints shows that Jesus' death breaks the curse of death, bringing new life. 

 

Scriptures referenced include Matthew 27:51-53; Acts 6:7; Matthew 27:45; Isaiah 5:25; Isaiah 24:18; Joel 2:10; Nahum 1:5–6; 1 Samuel 2:6; Psalm 16:10; Psalm 49:15; Job 19:25–26; Isaiah 26:19; Daniel 12:2; Ezekiel 37:1; Matthew 27:51; and Revelation 11:19.
