I'm trying to understand this portion of Matthew 27:
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Many commentaries seemed speculative about it at best. I looked through some cross references, but surprisingly, I didn't see another mention of this passage. Is there another mention of this event in Scripture?
Gill does mention some versions say "after their (own) resurrection" instead of "after his resurrection."
