Contextual Overview

⁴⁴ It was about noon, and the whole land became dark until three o'clock in the afternoon, ⁴⁵ because the sun did not shine. The curtain in the Temple was torn in two. ⁴⁶ Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Father, I give you my life." After Jesus said this, he died. ⁴⁷ When the army officer there saw what happened, he praised God, saying, "Surely this was a good man!" ⁴⁸ When all the people who had gathered there to watch saw what happened, they returned home, beating their chests because they were so sad. ⁴⁹ But those who were close friends of Jesus, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance and watched.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now when the centurion saw what was done,.... The eclipse of the sun, the darkness upon the land, the earthquake, the rocks rent, and Jesus expire in so uncommon a manner:

he glorified God; by confessing that Christ was the Son of God, and declaring him an innocent person:

saying, certainly, this was a righteous man; clear of the charges exhibited against him, and has suffered wrongfully; and this he concluded from those unusual appearances, and which he considered as tokens of divine resentment.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 27:52-55.

Luke 23:48

The things which were done - The earthquake, the darkness, and the sufferings of Jesus.

Smote their breasts - In token of alarm, fear, and anguish. They saw the judgments of God; they saw the guilt of the rulers; and they feared the farther displeasure of the Almighty.
