Matthew 27:53 meaning and explanation
After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.
Matthew 27:53, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Matthew alone records that at Jesus' death the tombs broke open and many holy people were raised, and verse 53 fixes the timing: they came out of the tombs after Jesus' resurrection, entered Jerusalem and appeared to many. The Greek word for resurrection, anastasis, means a standing up or rising.
