The distance Mt. Calvary was 330 km, which converted into feet it is 3280.84 Ft., from the Temple of Herod. That distance is greater than one half a mile. If Matthew is believed to have seen the veil rent he would have to be able to be seeing with clear definition almost 11 football fields away, lined up end to end.

The Doctrine of the OTW teaches that the witnesses on Mount Calvary did see the distance of eleven football fields, from a half mile, in darkness, during the earthquake destruction, the event of the Veil being rent, the event of the saints being resurrected from the dead and the dead entering into Jerusalem recognized by many while walking into the holy city.
Given the above physical conditions, the likelihood of these witnesses actually seeing these events is highly questionable.
