(Lesson 4457)(04-16-24) Luke 23:47-49
“Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned. And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.”
Today’s quote relates that, following Jesus' death on the cross, the Roman centurion overseeing the execution declared Jesus righteous, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous man." Those gathered, including acquaintances and faithful women who had followed Jesus from Galilee, stood at a distance and observed those events. Today’s quote highlights the recognition of Jesus' innocence and the impact of his death on those who witnessed it.~
