Easter Day John 20:1 We can hardly visit a cemetery without being filled with solemn and impressive thoughts. As you stand there with multitudes at your feet, all wrapped in slumber, your thoughts cany you back to the past, and on to the future. You look at the cold marble or the green grass which waves over that precious dust, but there is no one able to bid the slumberers arise. I. The Empty Tomb. There are many such spots where different groups of mourners meet, but there is one tomb above... read more

XXII. THE RESURRECTION."Now on the first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, while it was yet dark, unto the tomb, and seeth the stone taken away from the tomb. She runneth therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid Him. Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb. And they ran both together: and the... read more

20:1 The {1} first [day] of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.(1) Mary Magdalene, Peter, and John, are the first witnesses of the resurrection, and these cannot justly be suspected, for they themselves could hardly be persuaded of it; therefore, they would obviously not invent such a story on purpose. read more

THE GRAVE: OPEN AND EMPTY! (vs.1-10) Though others besides Mary of Magdala went together to the grave early on the first day of the week, yet in John she is singled out, a woman devoted, but incredulous, not able to take in the wondrous fact that her Lord was raised from the dead, despite the evidence, until she sees Him, and even then she does not realize the significance of this marvelous resurrection from among the dead. The stone was removed, she knew not how. Nothing is said here of... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - John 20:1-31

AFTER THE RESURRECTION THE FACT OF THE RESURRECTION (John 20:10 ) The original features are Mary Magdalene’s message to Peter and John and the visit of the last two to the tomb. Perhaps the most notable verse is John 20:7 , which shows the deliberate manner in which the resurrection took place. Everything contradicted the idea that the body had been stolen. Why thus should the linen clothes have been left? The quantity of linen must have been large when one hundred pounds of aromatic... read more

["First," and "early," and "dark," and "sepulchre," what a crowd of terms! Out of this warp and woof comes life's mixed and tangled web. There is a solitary woman in this verse.] 2. Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved [With what frank delicacy he indicates himself!], and saith unto... read more
