The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 16:6

And he saith unto them, Be not amazed — μὴ ἐκθαμβεῖσθε , the same word— ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, which hath been crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold, the place where they laid him ; that is, here is the place where they laid him ( ἴδε ὁ τόπος ). St. Matthew ( Matthew 28:6 ) says, "Come, see the place where the Lord lay" ( δεῦτε ἴδετε τὸν τόπον ). This seems to imply that the women actually entered the inner chamber, and saw the very place where the Lord... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 16:7

But go, tell his disciples and Peter, He goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you. St. Gregory ('Hom. in Evan.') says, "If the angel had not named Peter, he would not have dared to come amongst the disciples. Therefore he is specially named, lest he should despair on account of his denial." It was evidently intended as a special message of comfort to Peter. St. Luke ( Luke 24:34 ) records the personal appearance of our Lord first to Peter. Here St. Mark,... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Mark 16:1-8

See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 28:1-8.Mark 16:1Sweet spices - “Aromatics.” Substances used in embalming. The idea of sweetness is not, however, implied in the original. Many of the substances used for embalming were “bitter” - as, for example, myrrh - and none of them, perhaps, could properly be called “sweet.” The word “spices” expresses all that there is in the original.Anoint him - Embalm him, or apply these spices to his body to keep it from putrefaction. This is proof... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Mark 16:3-6

Mark 16:3-6 . And they said, Who shall roll us away the stone This seems to have been the only difficulty they apprehended. So they knew nothing of Pilate’s having sealed the stone, and placed a guard of soldiers there. And when they looked Αναβλεψασαι , and having lifted up their eyes; they saw Namely, before they arrived quite at the sepulchre; that the stone was rolled away An angel having descended and done this, as is recorded Matthew 28:2; where see the note. For it was very... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Mark 16:7

Mark 16:7. Go your way, tell his disciples, &c. The kindness of this message will appear above all praise, if we call to mind the late behaviour of the persons to whom it was sent. They had every one of them forsaken Jesus in his greatest extremity; but he graciously forgave them, and, to assure them of their pardon, called them by the endearing name of his brethren, John 20:17. And Peter Though he so oft denied his Lord. What amazing goodness was this! “Peter is here named, not as... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 16:1-11

RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION161. Morning of the resurrection (Matthew 28:1-15; Mark 16:1-11; Luke 24:1-12; John 20:1-18)It is not surprising that there are differences in the accounts of what people saw on the Sunday morning when Jesus rose from the dead. The sight of the empty tomb and the heavenly messengers produced a mixture of reactions - excitement, joy, anxiety, fear, wonder. There was confusion as people rushed here and there to tell others. One writer records what he heard from some,... read more
