Matthew 27:54 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 27:54

52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;

53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

54 ^aSo when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, ^b“Truly this was the Son of God!”

55 And many women ^awho followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were there looking on from afar,

56 ^aamong whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and¹ Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
