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]
The carrying of the cross is mentioned, without much detail, in all the canonical Gospels: Matthew 27:31–33, Mark 15:20–22, Luke 23:26–32 and John 19:16–18. Only John specifically says Jesus carried his cross, and all but John include Simon of Cyrene , who was recruited by the soldiers from the crowd to carry or help carry the cross.

The historical reliability of the Gospels is evaluated by experts who have not reached complete consensus. While all four canonical gospels contain some sayings and events that may meet at least one of the five criteria for historical reliability used in biblical studies, [note 1] the assessment and evaluation of these elements is a matter of ongoing debate.
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.
Matthew adds an all to Mark version, specifying that it is all of these figures that judged Jesus and drops the scribes. To Gundry the author of Matthew drops the scribes as there are no theological issues being discussed. [2] Like Matthew 26:3 "of the people" is added to title of the elders, something not found in Mark. [2]
In the Gospel of Matthew the centurion comes to Jesus in person; [16] in the Luke version he sends Jewish elders. [17] Since these accounts are clearly describing the same event, the harmonist must decide which is the more accurate description or else devise a composite account.
Matthew 27:52 is the fifty-second verse of the twenty-seventh chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. This verse describes some of the events that occurred upon death of Jesus , particularly the report that tombs broke open and the saints inside were resurrected.
