the Veil of the Temple was torn!
a Good Friday story of an incident in the Temple
You stand as a Levite Priest of the Lord God just outside the veil of the Holy of Holies. It is not a time designated for the appointed High Priest to enter the Most Holy Place for a specified, some-time offering to the LORD, even in the festival week of Passover.
In fact, the crowds and high officials have left the TEMPLE for a nearby hill of shame beyond Jerusalem’s gates. Beyond Temple windows the sky darkens, enveloping Jerusalem in a cleansing downpour as thunder explodes with lightning brightly shearing the deep darkness of a shroud over Jerusalem’s sky.
And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom;
and the earth shook and the rocks were split.
Good News of Matthew 27:51 NASB
It appears that the Very Presence of the LORD GOD descends upon the empty altar beyond your view and the FIRE which does not consume touches the top of the VEIL of the HOLY of Holies.
Then from beneath your trembling legs you feel the earth quake violently and a finger of FIRE descends upon the VEIL ripping the Holy curtain from top to bottom as it descends to the floor!
As suddenly as it entered the HOLY OF HOLIES — the flash of awesome FIRE departs!
