Luke 24:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 24:4

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.’ ”
