Matthew 13:55 mentions that James has a brother named Joses, and the close parallel between these two verses is the primary evidence for this Mary being Jesus' mother. John 19:25 mentions that Jesus' mother was present at the crucifixion, and thus could be being referred to by Matthew in this verse.
The Alexandrian, Western and Caesarean textual families all reflect harmonization of the texts between Matthew and Mark. Only the Byzantine textual tradition preserves a distinction. The Greek form σαβαχθανί in both accounts is the Greek transliteration of Aramaic שבקתני, transliterated: šəḇaqtani, meaning 'hast forsaken me'.
Matthew 27 is the 27th chapter in the Gospel of Matthew, part of the New Testament in the Christian Bible. This chapter contains Matthew's record of the day of the trial, crucifixion and burial of Jesus. Scottish theologian William Robertson Nicoll notes that "the record of this single day is very nearly one-ninth of the whole book". [1]
Spurgeon authored sermons, an autobiography, commentaries, books on prayer, devotionals, magazines, poetry, and hymns. [4] [5] Many sermons were transcribed as he spoke and were translated into many languages during his lifetime. He is said to have produced powerful sermons of penetrating thought and precise exposition.
Matthew 27:65–66 are the final two verses of the twenty-seventh chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament, coming after the crucifixion and entombment of Jesus. The chief priests and the Pharisees meet with Pontius Pilate , and he approves their request for a tomb guard.
The Pharisees, a regular villain in Matthew, reappear in this verse after being absent from crucifixion story. This is the only verse they appear during the passion narrative in any of the synoptic gospels. [5] They join the chief priests, who in Matthew were the main advocates for Jesus' death. [2] This same pairing occurred at Matthew 21:45.
Unlike other gospels, Matthew does not mention any anointing of Jesus' body. Perhaps the events of Matthew 26:12 are considered by the gospel writer to be sufficient anointment. [3] Joseph wraps the body in cloth, covering Jesus' nakedness that was the result of Matthew 27:35. [4] The word translated as 'cloth' is sindon.
