MARK 16:1-the end. ONE person in the tomb. A young man all in white in the tomb
LUKE 24:1-the end. TWO people in the tomb. two men in shining garments appeared while they were in the tomb
Read side by side Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
The bible is very explicit in the differences between the four books Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. They all have different people going to the tomb and seeing different things and then reporting back to different people. I’ve had children read this and they recognize that there are 4 different stories that don’t reconcile with each other.
1. John 20:1 The first of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulcher.
(Only Mary went by herself at when it was dark and the stone was already gone and nobody was in the tomb so she went to Simone Peter and did not see jesus on the way)
2. Matt 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher Mat 28:2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
(Only mary and mary went to the tomb at dawn, saw an earthquake and an angel descend from heaven who rolled the stone away and told them jesus was gone. They ran to tell the disciples and met jesus along the way)
3. Mark 16.1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. Mark 16:2 And very early in the morning the first of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. Mark 16:3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? Mark 16:4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.
(Mary and Mary and Salome went to the tomb at the rising sun, the stone was still there when they got there but some how disappeared when they looked, they saw a young man all in white in the tomb who gave them the scoop. Mary saw jesus on the way to the disciples)
4. Luke 24:1 Now upon the first of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain with them. Luke 24:2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. Luke 24:10 It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and other with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
(mary and Joanna and mary and others went to the tomb early in the morning, found it already rolled away, two men in shining garments appeared and gave them the scoop. They ran to the disciples but nobody saw jesus on the way)
