Matthew 27:45-54

45Now from the sixth hour, darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour.

46About the ninth hour Yeshua cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You abandoned Me?”

47When some of those standing there heard it, they began saying, “This Man is calling for Elijah.”

48Right away one of them ran and took a sponge. He filled it with sour wine and put it on a stick, and was offering it to Yeshua to drink.

49But the rest were saying, “Leave Him alone! Let’s see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50And Yeshua cried out again with a loud voice and gave up His spirit.

51And behold, the curtain of the Temple was split in two, from top to bottom. And the earth quaked and rocks were split apart.

52And the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the kedoshim who were sleeping were raised to life.

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

54Now the centurion, and those with him keeping guard over Yeshua, when they saw the earthquake and what was happening, they became terribly frightened and said, “This really was the Son of God!”
