Matthew 27:52 Context
50¶ Iesus, when hee had cried againe with a loud voice, yeelded vp the ghost. 51And behold, the vaile of the Temple was rent in twaine, from the top to the bottome, and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent. 52And the graues were opened, and many bodies of Saints which slept, arose, 53And came out of the graues after his resurrection, and went into the holy citie, and appeared vnto many. 54Now when the Centurion, and they that were with him, watching Iesus, saw the earthquake, & those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truely this was the Son of God.
