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.

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 ...
In the King James Version of the Bible it is translated as: And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
