The Death of Jesus
**It was about twelve o’clock when the sun stopped
shining and darkness covered the whole country until
three o’clock; “*and the curtain hanging in the Temple
was torn in two. ‘Jesus cried out in a loud voice,
“Father! In your hands I place my spirit!” He said this
and died.
(Luke 23.44-46)
The Resurrection
. «+ You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was
nailed to the cross. But he is not here—he has risen!
Look, here is the place where they laid him. *Now go
and give this ayo to his disciples, including Peter:
‘He is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see
him, just as he told you.’” *So they went out and ran
from the grave, because fear and terror were upon them.
(Mark 16.6-8)
