Appreciate this post's attention to symbolism and context. It brought to mind the layering of signs that eye witnesses experienced: "When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified and said, 'Truly this was the Son of God'" (Matthew 27:54, MSB).

Yes. Amen. They had to be utterly terrified...
