~ Luke‬ ‭23:34, 38

‬

“It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.””
‭‭
~ Luke‬ ‭23:44-47
