45\u00a0Now from the sixth hour, darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour. 46\u00a0About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, \u201cEli, Eli, Lemma Sabachthani?\u201d that is, \u201cMy God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?\u201d 47\u00a0And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, said, \u201cThis man is calling for Elijah.\u201d 48\u00a0And immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge, he filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink. 49\u00a0But the rest of them said, \u201cLet us see if Elijah comes to save Him.\u201d 50\u00a0And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit. 51\u00a0And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth shook and the rocks were split. 52\u00a0Also, the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53\u00a0and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they entered the holy city and appeared to many. 54\u00a0Now as for the centurion and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the other things that were happening, they became extremely frightened and said, \u201cTruly this was the Son of God!\u201d 55\u00a0And many women were there watching from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while caring for Him. 56\u00a0Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee. 57\u00a0Now when it was evening, a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph came, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. 58\u00a0This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59\u00a0And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60\u00a0and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the entrance of the tomb and went away. 61\u00a0And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
