The crowds were worked into a frenzy and they gave out the call. We would rather have a murderer than the one that says nothing at all. So they set a killer free and took the one that was as a lamb. They nailed him to a tree between two sinful men. In a short space of time, his life's blood flowed to the ground. With only a few groans and one declaration, his life came to an end. That is when the real amazing things began. The earth shook mightily and the buildings were rocked to their core. At last there was redemption that had not been there before. In the temple there was panic, as the giant curtain came crashing down. The innermost holy place could now be seen from all around. At that moment a new covenant took hold, where God and man could abide. All was forgiven, the day the veil was set aside.
