Luke 23:46
44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.
45 The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.
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.”
48 And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
