Luke 23:45

The cross and atonementGod's presence

43 And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.

The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.

46 Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.” And when He had said this, He breathed His last.

47 When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”
