Reading this chapter slowly and carefully gives you a detailed account of what happens. I would like to focus on just a couple things.
First off, dead people rise after Jesus dies! This is crazy!!!!!
Also, the non-religious soldiers see something extreme in the death of Jesus. Imagine the way that people reacted to these events! There’s a lot to talk about in the streets of Jerusalem!
I wonder what my reaction would have been during these events… would I have believed or pushed the details away? The story leaves no choice. Surrender to the new king or make way.
