The beginning of the kingdom of God, the end of this world

(4) The beginning of the kingdom of God, the end of this world

The blood shed by the Lord at the time of the affliction was "the blood of the covenant for many people to get forgiveness of sin" (Matthew 26; 28).
This is a new contract. The Gospel teaches that a new era has begun from this time. When the crowd came to capture Jesus with Judas at the head, the Lord himself said, `` Now is your time and the time of dark rule. '' (Luke 22; 53)

"Now" means that once this is over, a new light special will come, not "time of dark rule." This “time of dark rule” ends when the Lord dies on the cross.
"The sun has lost its light, the whole earth has gone dark, and the temple curtain has been torn from the middle" (Luke 23; 44-45).
"There was another earthquake, the rocks were torn, the curtain was opened, and the bodies of many sleeping saints were revived" (Matthew 27; 51-52).
This mysterious phenomenon comes from the text of the Old Testament that tells us that the end of the world is endless and that a new era begins.
(Amos 8; 8-9, Joel 2; 10, Jeremiah 15; 9, Daniel 12; 2).

It is impossible to say from the Bible alone whether this mysterious thing happened at the time of Lord’s death. It is particularly difficult for the saint' s dead bodies to be revived when the curtain opens. Why did Matthew's author take this to the death of the Lord? There are various theories to explain this. The sentence that the corpses of these saints have been revived is actually safe to go to the Lord's resurrection. Because Matthew wrote that this revived corpse “was out of the grave and entered the holy city after the resurrection of Jesus” (Matthew 27; 53). Then, the corpse that was revived when the Lord died was waiting in the grave until the resurrection of Christ. Speaking of being quiet in the grave, that may be fine. But that doesn't explain much. Rather, it seems better to think that there is something misunderstanding or wrong impressions in the text. There is a theory that "after the resurrection of Jesus" is a copy of "after the resurrection of them (Saints)". But this is also a little difficult.
