Bonus question: Why was the veil torn in two? The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two
I believe the veil ''which was a curtain'' was what symbolized separation of God. Only the chief priest could go behind the veil and then only once a year and only with a blood sacrifice. By: Victor Emmanuel - December 18, 2006 - Public Category: Jesus` Death

When Jesus "breathed his last" and was pronounced dead; why did The Roman centurion glorify god?
He believed at last that Jesus is the son of God sent to save the whole world in the sense that he accepted to be crucified while innocent. By: Bol Joseph Agau - December 23, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus` Death

Because the Roman centurion witnessed the son of God being crucified on the cross for us all. Even Jesus used his last breath talking to God and said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Jesus is Lord!

Because Jesus completed his mission and saved us from sin and forgiven by God. When Jesus said it is finished, we are now righteous before God because of what his son did for us on the cross. Give praise and glory to God forever more. Now, I am a child of God and part of his family because of Jesus Christ. Amen! By: Al Benavides - December 23, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus` Death

With the veil in the temple ordinary people was not allow to enter beyond that veil, only the high priest would allow to enter because it was the holy of the holy place. When Jesus died the veil torn into two so that we could directly go to God through Jesus the Christ. By: Allen Yong - December 23, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus` Death

They glorified Him because they know He is the One! By: reybeth - December 23, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus` Death
It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole
land until the ninth hour. The sun was darkened, and the
veil of the temple was torn in two. Jesus, crying with a loud voice,
said, "Father, into your hands I commit my
spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.
When the centurion
saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a
righteous man." All
the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things
that were done, returned home beating their breasts. All his acquaintances, and the
women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching
these things.
