27.51 Et ecce velum templi. Ut arca testamenti et omnia sacramenta legis quæ tegebantur appareant, et ad gentes transeant. Josephus ait virtutes angelicas præsides quondam templi tunc pariter conclamasse: transeamus de his sedibus. Velum quod dicebatur exterius: quia nunc ex parte videmus; cum autem venerit quod perfectum est, tunc velum interius dirumpetur. Terra mota est. Omnia elementa suum Dominum crucifixum demonstrant. Terra movetur, Dominum suum pendentem ferre non sustinens. Petræ. Id est corda gentilium, vel vaticinia prophetarum, qui petræ dicuntur a petra Christo, ut quidquid in eis duro legis velamine clausum erat, scissum pateret gentibus.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

27:51 The significance of the splitting of the curtain in the Temple is that the wall dividing people from God has been torn down by the death of Jesus Christ (see also Eph 2:11-22; Heb 6:19; 9:1–10:25).
• The earth shook, rocks split apart: These are portents of the arrival of judgment (see Exod 19:18; Judg 5:4; Ps 18:7; Joel 3:14-17; Amos 8:8-10). Josephus records the appearance about AD 30 of a star resembling a sword and a spontaneous opening of the gates of the Temple (Josephus, War 6.5.3-4).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations

ἰδοὺ

behold

Here, the word behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: “picture this” or “suddenly”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐσχίσθη εἰς δύο, ἀπ’ ἄνωθεν ἕως κάτω, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐσείσθη, καὶ αἱ πέτραι ἐσχίσθησαν

the curtain ˱of˲_the temple /was/_torn (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ ἰδοὺ τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐσχίσθη ἀπʼ ἄνωθεν ἕως κάτω εἰς δύο καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐσείσθη καὶ αἱ πέτραι ἐσχίσθησαν)

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the actions, it is clear from the context that it was God. Alternate translation: “God split the curtain of the temple in two from top to bottom, and he shook the earth, and he split the rocks”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ

the curtain ˱of˲_the temple

Here Matthew could referring to the curtain: (1) that separated the Most Holy Place from the rest of the temple. Alternate translation: “the curtain that marked off the Most Holy Place in the temple” (2) that separated the Holy Place from the rest of the temple area. Alternate translation: “the curtain that marked off the temple building”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

αἱ πέτραι

the rocks

The phrase the rocks represents nearby rocks in general, not one particular set of rocks. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in another way. Alternate translation: “the nearby rocks” or “many rocks”

Jesus’ Arrest, Trial, Crucifixion, and Burial

Matthew 26-27; Mark 14-15; Luke 22-23; John 13-19

On the Thursday before he was crucified, Jesus had arranged to share the Passover meal with his disciples in an upper room, traditionally thought to be located in the Essene Quarter of Jerusalem. After they finished the meal, they went to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus often met with his disciples. There Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ own disciples, betrayed him to soldiers sent from the High Priest, and they took Jesus to the High Priest’s residence. In the morning the leading priests and teachers of the law put Jesus on trial and found him guilty of blasphemy. The council sent Jesus to stand trial for treason before the Roman governor Pontius Pilate, who resided at the Praetorium while in Jerusalem. The Praetorium was likely located at the former residence of Herod the Great, who had died over 30 years earlier. When Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he sent him to Herod Antipas, who had jurisdiction over Galilee. But when Jesus gave no answer to Herod’s many questions, Herod and his soldiers sent him back to Pilate, who conceded to the people’s demands that Jesus be crucified. Jesus was forced to carry his cross out of the city gate to Golgotha, meaning Skull Hill, referring to what may have been a small unquarried hill in the middle of an old quarry just outside the gate. After Jesus was unable to carry his cross any further, a man named Simon from Cyrene was forced to carry it for him. There at Golgotha they crucified Jesus. After Jesus died, his body was hurriedly taken down before nightfall and placed in a newly cut, rock tomb owned by Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Jewish high council. This tomb was likely located at the perimeter of the old quarry.
