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

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 16:5

And entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, arrayed in a white robe; and they were amazed.The young man ... Mark surely intended that we should understand that this was an angel of heaven. Some people refuse to believe in the existence of angels, having been poisoned by the leaven of the Sadducees; and, like the Sadducees, they "do greatly err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God" (Matthew 22:29). Again, from the words of Cranfield:Here a protest... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 16:6

And he saith unto them, Be not amazed: ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who hath been crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold, the place where they laid him.The Nazarene ... How unlike any human designation was this! When the Lord Jesus addressed Saul of Tarsus from glory, he said, "I am Jesus of Nazareth whom thou persecutest" (Acts 22:8). Just why the angels of God and Christ himself should have brought the name of that wretched Galilean village into such identifications cannot be fully... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 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.Tell his disciples and Peter ... Peter's denial had left him in an estranged position with regard to Jesus, and such a message as this would have greatly encouraged him. No doubt he needed such encouragement. If the Lord had intended by this special mention of Peter to indicate any preeminence among the apostles, his name would have come first.Into Galilee ... This anticipates the... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 16:8

And they went out, and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them: and they said nothing to any one; for they were afraid.Trembling and astonishment had come upon them ... These graphic words indicate dramatically the soul-shocking nature of the truth those women had just learned. The mystery and heart-stopping meaning of what they had come to know was as devastating a body of information as mortals ever received; and the implications of it are enough to challenge and... read more
