Mt. 27 ... Mt. 27 ... Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
This signifies that now the way was made for us to go directly to God without having to go through another person.
Prior
 to this there was a high room hidden by a veil and the high priest went
 in once a year with a sacrifice.  The people could not go in.
But
 now that veil of the temple is rent in two and all can see in and go in
 when they belong to God and when they go in through Jesus, through HIS 
sacrifice for them.
