The Guard at the Tomb

Matthew 27:62-66

“We remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again” verse 63

These religious leaders vented their hatred of Christ quickly when they called Him “that deceiver.” These words are translated from a word which means “vagabond imposter

The memory of the enemies of Christ was better than the memory of Christ’s disciples when it came to the resurrection message. The disciples did not pay attention to this message, for they did not want nor think Christ would die. All Christ’s predictions about His death and promises about the resurrection were unheeded by the disciples. But Christ’s enemies heard and remembered the message

Jesus Is Buried

Matthew 27:57-61

“There came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph” verse 57 The man who provided the tomb for Christ was a wealthy man. It seems that most earthly wealth is controlled by the ungodly; but there are a few exceptions among the wealthy, such as Joseph of Arimathea, who are friends of the Gospel.

The Death of Jesus

Matthew 27:45-56

Death was announced by the cry of Christ on the cross. The actual cry, “It is finished,” is recorded only in John 19:30.

The crucifixion was not a victory for the devil and a defeat of God. It was not an unplanned event or unexpected event for God. It was planned (I Peter 1:18–20; Revelation 13:8) and carried out to the letter by God and Christ.
