Mark 15:38

Then the curtain in the inner temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.
[The curtain separated the most holy part of the temple. The fact that it was torn from top to bottom emphasizes that it was God who opened the way for man to have fellowship with him. According to early Jewish tradition, which in some parts may be exaggerated, it consisted of two thick pieces of fabric woven into one piece, hung half a meter apart. Each curtain was 18 meters high, nine meters wide, and a few centimeters thick, and it took 300 priests to lift it.]
