Mark 15:36-38
Contemporary English Version
36 (A) One of them ran and grabbed a sponge. After he had soaked it in wine, he put it on a stick and held it up to Jesus. He said, “Let's wait and see if Elijah will come[a] and take him down!” 37 Jesus shouted and then died.
38 (B) At once the curtain in the temple[b] tore in two from top to bottom.

- 15.38 curtain in the temple: There were two curtains in the temple. One was at the entrance, and the other separated the holy place from the most holy place that the Jewish people thought of as God's home on earth. The second curtain is probably the one which is meant.
