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."

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.

Like the other verses in this section of Matthew, there is no parallel in the other gospels.

The Greek term used in this verse, Greek: κουστωδίας, koustodia, is a borrowing from the Latin custodia, and thus also implies Roman forces. [2] This is the same wording as is used at Matthew 27:27, where the soldiers are clearly Roman guards. [4] However, R. T. France argues that the guards were probably Jewish temple guards.
In the King James Version of the Bible it is translated as: And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre. The modern World English Bible translates the passage as: Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb. For a collection of other versions see BibleHub Matthew 27:61.
