Matt 27.514 Reconsidered: Its Role in the Passion Narrative, Meaning and Origin. Troxel, R. L. New Testament Studies, 48(1):30–47, 2002. doi abstract bibtex This report of opened tombs and risen saints is conventionally deemed to mark Jesus death as the dawn of the new age. However, this understanding obscures Matthews studied climax in v. 54. Defending the theory that vv. 51b54 are a Matthean creation, it is argued here that Matthew drew his scene of risen saints from 1 Enoch 93.6, where visions of the Holy Ones accompany the gift of the Torah. Matthew utilized this motif from the Mosaic era not to infuse Jesus death with eschatological significance, but to provoke the centurions acclamation of Jesus as son of God as the climax of the crucifixion narrative.
