18 April 2014: Matthew 27: 45-54
"Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land
unto the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice,
saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me? Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said,
This man calleth for Elijah. And straightway one of them ran, and took a
sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and
gave him to drink. The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elijah will come
to save him. Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the
ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to
the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; And the graves were
opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the
graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto
many. Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw
the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying,
Truly this was the Son of God."
