He Is Risen

1 Now aon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they,1 and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bbringing the spices which they had prepared.  
2 aBut they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.  
3 aThen they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.  
4 And it happened, as they were1 greatly perplexed about this, that abehold, two men stood by them in shining garments.  
5 Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?
6 He is not here, but is risen! aRemember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee,  
7 saying, ‘The Son of Man must be adelivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’ ”  
8 And athey remembered His words.  
9 aThen they returned from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.  
10 It was Mary Magdalene, aJoanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.  
11 aAnd their words seemed to them like1 idle tales, and they did not believe them.  
12 aBut Peter arose and ran to the tomb; and stooping down, he saw the linen cloths1 lying by themselves; and he departed, marveling to himself at what had happened.

Luke 24:1

Bringing the spices - To embalm the body of our Lord: but Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea had done this before the body was laid in the tomb. See John 19:39, John 19:40. But there was a second embalming found necessary: the first must have been hastily and imperfectly performed; the spices now brought by the women were intended to complete the preceding operation.

And certain others with them - This clause is wanting in BCL, two others; Coptic, Ethiopic, Vulgate, and in all the Itala except two. Dionysius Alexandrinus, and Eusebius also omit it. The omission is approved by Mill, Bengel, Wetstein, Griesbach, and others. Bishop Pearce thinks it should be left out for the following reasons:

1."They who came to the sepulchre, as is here said, being the same with those who, in Luke 23:55, are called the women which came with him from Galilee, there was no room for Luke (I think) to add as here, and some others came with them; because the words in Luke 23:55, to which these refer, include all that can be supposed to be designed by the words in question.

2.Luke has named no particular woman here, and therefore he could not add and some others, etc., these words necessarily requiring that the names of the women should have preceded, as is the case in Luke 24:10, where, when Mary Magdalene, the other Mary, and Joanna, had been named, it is very rightly added, and other women that were with them."
