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]
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 second Mary mentioned, also generates much debate. She appears twice more in the resurrection narrative at Matthew 27:61 and 28:1. In those later verses she is referred to as "the other Mary." Which James she is the mother of is the centre of the debate. There have been three men affiliated to Jesus named James mentioned so far in Matthew.
The opening of the verse is unique to Matthew, resetting the narrative to the trial before Pilate. [1] The following exchange between Jesus and Pilate is a rare item found in all four Gospels; with variations it is also at Mark 15:2, Luke 23:3, and John 18:31-37. [2]
This verse highlights their leader, a centurion. It is the second time a centurion appears in Matthew, the previous time being the healing the Centurion's servant in Matthew 8. The soldiers had been present for the torture and mockery of Jesus, such as the King of the Jews sign at Matthew 27:37. The proclamation in this verse thus shows that ...
[1] In the previous chapter Jesus has been arrested. The three synoptic gospels present this verse differently. At Luke 23:1 it is "all the people" who condemn Jesus. Mark 15:1 speaks of the chief priest, leaders, and scribes. Matthew adds an all to Mark version, specifying that it is all of these figures that judged Jesus and drops the scribes ...
This reduces the chance that this verse is a reference to Isaiah, though Matthew's Old Testament references are often very loose. [6] Gundry notes that modern scholars today doubt that "rich man" was in the original version of Isaiah 53:9, but it would have been in the version the author of Matthew was using so that does not affect this verse. [7]
[1] This verse is a modification of material found at Mark 15:46, and is paralleled by Luke 23:53 and John 19:40. Matthew adds a mention of the linen being "clean" one of four places in his gospel that the author of Matthew adds a mention of cleanliness. [2] Unlike other gospels, Matthew does not mention any anointing of Jesus' body.
