    However, Matthew follows a theme recurring throughout his gospel by providing deeper descriptions than Mark. Matthew's crucifixion scene runs for only sixteen verses from 27:35 to 27:51, the same number of verses as in the Gospel of Mark, but one more than the Gospel of Luke, and three more than the Gospel of John. It is postulated that all ...

    N. T. Wright, an Anglican New Testament scholar and theologian, has stated, "The tragic and horrible later use of Matthew 27.25 ('his blood be on us, and on our children') as an excuse for soi-disant 'Christian' anti-semitism is a gross distortion of its original meaning, where the reference is surely to the fall of Jerusalem." [7]

    (GN 21) Matthew 27:51 states not that the veil of the temple was rent, but that the lintel of the temple of wondrous size collapsed.

    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 preceding crucifixion quake was accompanied by darkness, splitting of the rock and opening of graves (Matthew 27:51). [2] In this way, a crack in the rock is purported to explain the empty tomb on resurrection day; the body of Jesus fell into a crevice produced by the earthquake and the crack closed again because of the aftershocks .

    The one used in Matthew, Ἠλί, fits in better with the אלי of the original Hebrew Psalm, but the form is attested abundantly in Aramaic as well. [ 3 ] [ 5 ] In the next verse, in both accounts, some who hear Jesus's cry imagine that he is calling for help from Elijah ( Ēlīyā in Aramaic).

  9. Matthew 27:59 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_27:59

    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.
