Mark 16:1-8
Mary Magdalene, Mary the Mother of James and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. It was every early on the first day of the week.
They saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. This young man is angel.
Your are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples, He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he tole you.
These three women were trembling and bewildered困惑 fled from the tomb.
For some unknown reason - mot probably damage to very early copies of the Gospel - the best surviving manuscripts of Mark end abruptly at 16:8
Why?
These three women love Jesus and care about the body of Jesus, so they went to the Tomb, try to do something for Jesus.
When they saw the big stone was rolled away, they were alarmed, they didn't know what is going on? Even they saw the young man as a ghost before they talked.
Trembling and bewildered made them fled away and afraid to tell anyone about what they saw, they wanted to protect Jesus and his disciples.
How?
Am I bewilder to what I will be? No, I believe Jesus will lead my way forward.
If I were these three women I would reacted as they did. Amazing feature usually makes us surprising and trembling. Transfer this fear to respect to the Jesus, for he has risen. The "Love won the flight" - we will sing to the Lord in church tomorrow
Love of Jesus won the death.
