Mat 27:64 | JFB | STEP | 64. Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure-- by a Roman guard. until the third day-- after which, if He still lay in the grave, the imposture of His claims would be manifest to all. and say unto the people, he is risen from the dead-- Did they really fear this? so the last error shall be worse than the first-- the imposture of His pretended resurrection worse than that of His pretended Messiahship.

‏ Matthew 27:64

64. Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure--by a Roman guard.

until the third day--after which, if He still lay in the grave, the imposture of His claims would be manifest to all.

and say unto the people, he is risen from the dead--Did they really fear this?

so the last error shall be worse than the first--the imposture of His pretended resurrection worse than that of His pretended Messiahship.
