15:35 - Some of the bystanders heard these words which Jesus spoke in Aramaic - Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?, and said, "Listen, he's calling for Elijah!"
15:36 - One man ran off and soaked a sponge in vinegar, put it on a stick, and held it up for Jesus to drink, calling out, "Let him alone! Let's see if Elijah will come and take him down!"
15:37 - But Jesus let out a great cry, and died.
15:38 - The curtain of the Temple sanctuary was split in two from top to the bottom.
15:39 - And when the centurion who stood in front of Jesus saw how he died, he said, "This man was certainly a son of God!"

16:3 - "Who is going to roll the stone back from the doorway of the tomb?" they asked each other.
