Some posters have raised the issue whether there was one guard or more than one. Consider the following. Matthew 28 New American Standard Bible 11 Now while they (plural) were on their (plural) way, some of the guard (obviously more than one person) came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened. 12 And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers (plural), 13 and said, "You are to say, 'His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we (plural) were asleep.' 14 "And if this should come to the governor's ears, we will win him over and keep you out of trouble." 15 And they (plural) took the money and did as they (plural) had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews, [and is] to this day. (Parenthetical comments added.) --JVH0212 "In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, and in all things charity." |
