“…69 Moreover, noting that Matt 25.31 interprets Zechariah's 'holy ones' as 'the angels', Allison asserts that Matthew received 27.51-3, with its different interpretation of the 'holy ones', as tradition. 70 However, it is noteworthy that, aside from 'the saints', there is no element in Matt 27.51-3 that is distinctly related to Zech 14.4-5. 71 While Zech 14.4 LXX uses the passive voice of sciv zw, Matthew's designation of rocks as split shows no necessary reliance on Zechariah's split mountain.…”

This report of opened tombs and risen saints is conventionally deemed to markJesus' death as the dawn of the new age. However, this understanding obscures Matthew's studied climax in v. 54. Defending the theory that vv. 51b-54 are a Matthean creation, it is argued here that Matthew drew his scene of risen saints from 1 Enoch 93.6, where 'visions of the Holy Ones' accompany the gift of the Torah. Matthew utilized this motif from the Mosaic era not to infuse Jesus' death with eschatological significance, but to provoke the centurion's acclamation of Jesus as 'son of God'as the climax of the crucifixion narrative.  New Test.
