Matthew 27:52-53

27:52 And tombs were opened, and the bodies of many saints who had died ¹  were raised. 27:53 (They ²  came out of the tombs after his resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.)

[27:52]  ¹ tn The verb κοιμάω (koimaw) literally means “sleep,” but it is often used in the Bible as a euphemism for the death of a believer.

[27:53]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.
