Theophylact of Ohrid, on Luke 23:47

“Now the centurion, seeing what was done, glorified God, saying: Indeed this was a just man.”

“But the race of women formerly cursed remains and sees all these things; for it follows, And the women which followed him from Galilee, seeing these things. And thus they are the first to be renewed by justification, or by the blessing which flows from His passion, as also from His resurrection.”
