When The Saints Don't Go Marching In
WHEN THE SAINTS DON'T GO MARCH ING IN Is Matthew's Imaginative Scene in 27:52,53 Inspired? Introduction Something strange happened one day as I re-read the Gospel According to Matthew.

And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth shook and the rocks were split. The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered the holy city and appeared to many."
