Matthew 28:1

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 28:1

Matthew 28:1. In the end of the sabbath Or rather, After the sabbath, as οψε σαββατων may be properly translated. Thus, in Philostratus, οψε των Τρωικων signifies, after the Trojan war; οψε μυστηριων , after the mysteries were ended. And in other authors, οψε τουτων is, after these things; οψε νυκτος , after night; see many examples of this in Stephanus. And so this perfectly agrees with the other evangelists, who say what is here related was done when the sabbath was ended, Mark... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 28:1-15

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

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 28:1

MATT. 28THE RESURRECTION OF CHRIST; THE APPEARANCE OF CHRIST ALIVE; THE SANHEDRIN'S FALSEHOOD; THE FINAL INTERVIEW; AND THE GREAT COMMISSIONNow late on the sabbath day, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. (Matthew 28:1)Matthew in this place obviously used the Roman method of counting days, making the first day of the week begin at dawn, contrary to the Jewish usage which made it begin the night before at sunset. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Matthew 28:1

Matthew 28:1. In the end of the sabbath, &c.— Some writers close the last chapter thus, Sealing the stone, and setting a watch late on the sabbath; and begin the present, and when it began to dawn, &c. as the Jewish day began at sun-setting, the Jews distinguished the evening into two parts, which they called the first and second evening; the first being the evening with which the preceding day ended, and the second the evening with which the new day began. The first evening was the... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Matthew 28:1

1. In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn—after the Sabbath, as it grew toward daylight. toward the first day of the week—Luke (Luke 24:1) has it, "very early in the morning"—properly, "at the first appearance of daybreak"; and corresponding with this, John (John 20:1) says, "when it was yet dark." See on John 20:1- :. Not an hour, it would seem, was lost by those dear lovers of the Lord Jesus. came Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary—"the mother of James and Joses" (see on John 20:1- :;... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 28:1

The NASB translation of the Greek preposition opse as "late" is misleading. The word can also mean "after," and it makes better sense if translated as such here. [Note: Moule, p. 86.] The women waited until after the Sabbath to go to Jesus’ tomb (cf. Mark 16:1-2). They went early Sunday morning. The "other Mary" was Mary the mother of James and Joseph (Matthew 27:56). Mark added that Salome also accompanied them (Mark 16:1). Salome was evidently the name of the mother of Zebedee’s sons. The... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 28:1-20

The ResurrectionFor the Resurrection see special article. 1-10. The Resurrection and appearance to the women (Mark 16:1; Luke 24:1; John 20:1). If it be remembered that a considerable number of women visited the tomb—Mary Magdalene, Mary mother of James, Salome (Mk), Joanna (Lk), and ’the other women with them’ (Lk)—the fragmentary accounts of the evangelists are not very difficult to arrange in order. (1) Mary Magdalene and the other women visit the tomb immediately after the resurrection, and... read more
