Luke 24:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 24:2

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.
