12-04 - Mark 16 1-11 or Luke 24 1-12

 N.T. in a year reading & study, verses R paraphrased [  ] references {  } thots

πŸŒ™ {Days begin at sunset rather than midnight. Jesus was sentenced and died on Passover, was put in the tomb as 1st Day of Unleavened Bread was beginning (at the sun’s setting) and rose 3 days later on the 3rd holy day of Spring holy week. This third sacred day is Firstfruits, which always follows the regular weekly (Saturday) Sabbath of the week. So Firstfruits begins ‘saturday’ at sunset as the weekly Sabbath is ending. There are three Sabbaths - no work days - of Spring holy [qodesh - set apart] week, the first and last/7th day of Unleavened Bread, and the regular, weekly ‘saturday’ Sabbath - which is from sunset friday to sunset saturday. Jesus said he would be “in the grave for three days and three nights”. Therefore Passover that year fell upon a Tuesday, Jesus was put into the grave as the sun was setting, which begins ‘Wednesday’ as we call it. First Day of Unleavened Bread is the day after Passover. And Passover meal is not eaten on Passover, but after sunset.}

     Mk.16:1 - When the Sabbath (of 1st Unleavened Bread day) was past, Salome, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, bought spices and prepared them (during friday) for his tomb. {Then they rested during regular weekly Sabbath.} 2 And very early on the first day of the week (sunday/Firstfruits) when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4 But when they got there, they saw the stone had been rolled away. 5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, dressed in a white robe, and they were frightened. 6 And he said, “Don’t be afraid. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen, and is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7 Go and tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you’ll see him, just as he told you.” 8 And they hurried out, not knowing what to think, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

     [Some of the earliest manuscripts don’t include 16:9–20, an older ending to Mark’s account.] 9 Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10 She went to the others who had been with him and told them as they were mourning and grieving. 11 But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they didn’t believe it.

     LUKE 24:1-12

1 - Then on the first day of the week, at dawn, the women went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they went in the body of the Lord Jesus wasn’t there. 4 While they were puzzled and wondering about it, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. 5 The women were frightened and shied away. But the men said, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, when he was in Galilee 7 how the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and rise on the third day.” 8 And so they remembered his words, 9 and going back from the tomb they told all of this to the eleven and the others. 10 Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told it to the apostles, 11 but it seemed to them like an idle tale, and they didn’t pay any attention. 12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. And stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths off to the side. And he went away wondering.

     06/04 - GospeL Verses

1 - Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw the stone had been taken away from the tomb. [During Spring holy week, the third holy day, Firstfruits always followed the regular weekly Sabbath.] 2 So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved (John referred to himself this way) and said to them, “They’ve taken the Lord! And “we” don’t know where they’ve laid him.”

     3 So Peter went with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. 4 Both of them running together, but the other disciple outran Peter, and reached the tomb first. 5 And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he didn’t go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7 and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus' head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself. 8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed. 9 For as yet they didn’t understand the Scripture, that he would rise from the dead. 10 Then the two went back to their homes.

     11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb. 12 And she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and one at the feet. 13 They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said, “They have taken away my Lord, and I don’t know where they have lain him.” 14 Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus, but she didn’t know it was him. 15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you seeking?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have lain him, and I’ll take him away.” 16 Jesus said, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic,“Rabboni!” which means Teacher. 17 Jesus told her, “Don’t hang onto me, for I’ve not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I’m ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” 18 So she went to the disciples and announced, “I’ve seen the Lord!”—and told them what he had said to her.

    Mt.28:1 - Now after the Sabbath, toward dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and then sat upon it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 4 And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. 5 But the angel said to the women, “Don’t be afraid, for I know you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6 He’s not here. He has risen, as he said he would. Come in and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee. And you will see him there, just as I have now told you.” 8 So they went quickly from the tomb with awe and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they fell and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said, “Don’t be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”

     06/01 - GospeL Verses 

50 - When Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit, 51 right then, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and rocks split apart. 52 The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, 53 and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many. 54 When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over the crucifixion, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with wonder and said, “This truly was the Son of God!”

     55 There were also many women there, looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, who helped him with their resources, 56 among whom were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James (called lesser) and his brother Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee (John and James).

     57 And then when evening was soon beginning, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus. 58 He went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. And then Pilate ordered it so. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone over the entrance of the tomb and went away.  {They wanted him in the tomb by sunset, as sunset began the first Sabbath/no work day of Spring holy week, next Sabbath would be the regular weekly Sabbath, then last day of Unleavened Bread would be a Sabbath/no work day as well.} 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting nearby.

MARK 15 33-47 LUKE 23 44-56

   πŸƒπŸ•Š️12/02 - GospeL Verses πŸƒπŸ•Š️

33 - And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 35 And some of the bystanders hearing it said, “Look! He’s calling to Elijah.” 36 And someone ran and filled a sponge with strong wine, and putting it on a reed, gave it to him to drink, saying, “Will Elijah come to take him down?” 37 But then Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last breath. 38 And the (large, metal weaved in?) curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39 When the Roman centurion guarding there, saw how he died, he said, “Truly this was the Son of God!” 40 There were also women looking on from a distance, among whom were Salome, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger (of the twelve disciples) and of Joses. 41 When he was in Galilee, they had aided him with meals and support. There were also many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.

     42 And when evening was coming [hurriedly] (the new day beginning at sunset, which day would be a Sabbath/no work day) since it was (still) before Unleavened Bread Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus had already died. And summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. 45 And when he learned that he was, he granted the body to Joseph. 46 And Joseph bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in it and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. 47 And Mary the mother of Joses and Mary Magdalene saw where he was laid.

      LUKE 23:44-56 [Accounts always differ in details, especially after some time has passed.] 44 -  It was now about the sixth hour [about noon] and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour [3 pm]. 45 Then the curtain of the temple was torn in two. [Matthew 27:52 - The earth shook, the rocks split.] 46 And Jesus, calling out with a loud voice said, “Father into your hands I commit my spirit!”  [Commit, entrust - paratithΓ©mi- to place beside, to set before, to entrust, to commit, from serve a meal to commit, entrust, from para - beside or alongside, and tithΓ©mi - to place or to set.. entrust, commit, serve (“into your hands my spirit”.] And having said this he breathed his last. 47 Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, and said, “Surely this man was innocent!” 48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts. 49 And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance watching these things.

     50 Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, 51 who had not consented to their duplicity {conspiracy} and he was waiting for the kingdom of God. 52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and laid him in a tomb cut in stone, where no one had ever yet been laid. 54 It was the day of Preparation, and the (Unleavened Bread) Sabbath was beginning. [First Day of Unleavened Bread is a Sabbath/no work day. It is the day after Passover, which Passover is the “preparation day” for it.] 55 The women who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid. 56 Then they left and prepared spices and ointments. And on the (Unleavened Bread) Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

     [Remember, days began at sunset, not at midnight. They would have prepared spices on the day after the Sabbath of First Day of Unleavened Bread, so did the work of preparing them on 2nd day of Unleavened Bread, then rested/no work on the regular weekly Sabbath (7th day, Saturday) ..and went to the tomb as the sun was rising on the day following the weekly (Saturday) Sabbath — Passover and 1st Day of U.B. are moveable holy days. But the third holy day, Firstfruits, isn’t moveable but is always on the same day of the week, the day after the weekly (Saturday) Sabbath.

     Jesus died on Passover - was in the grave as 1st Day of U.B. day was beginning - and rose on Firstfruits. (As weekly Sabbath has ended, same time of day, as 3 days earlier when he was laid in the tomb) - Thus the three holy days of Spring holy week were fulfilled — The Spring and Fall holy days are listed in Leviticus chapter 23.]

GospeL Verses ~ Jn.20:1-18 Mt.28:1-10

Jn.20:1 - On the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, and saw the stone had been taken away from the opening. 2 So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved (John) and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb! And - we - don’t know where they have taken him.” 3 So Peter and the other disciple were going toward the tomb, 4 both of them running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but didn’t go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7 and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus' head, folded and lying in a place by itself. 8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, went in, and saw and believed. 9 But as yet they didn’t understand the Scripture, how it said he must rise from the dead. 10 Then they went back to their homes.

     11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped and looked inside. 12 And she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and one at the feet. 13 They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I don’t know where they have taken him.” 14 Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus, but she didn’t know it was him. 15 Jesus said, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” And supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, please tell me where you have taken him, and I will take him.” 16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” which means Teacher. 17 Jesus said, “Don’t cling to me, for I’ve not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” 18 Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord!” and told them what he had said to her.

    MT.28:1 - Now after the Sabbath, toward dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord had come down from heaven and had rolled back the stone and was sitting on it. 3 His appearance was radiant like lightning and his clothing white as snow. 4 The guards trembled and became like dead men. 5 But the angel said to the women, “Don’t be afraid, for I know you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6 He’s not here, for he has risen, as he said he would. Come, see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and he is going before you to Galilee. And there you will see him. See, I have told you.” 8 So they departed quickly from the tomb with wonder and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 But Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid, go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” (Eye witness accounts, especially years later, always differ. We are suspicious if they don’t.)

From New Testament Letters

     (In the Order Believed Written)

                           ~ ~ Jude 1:1-6 ~ ~

1 - Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James (both natural brothers of Jesus) - To those who are called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ - 2 May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.

     3 Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common faith, I found it necessary instead to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was first and once for all proclaimed and delivered. 4 For certain people have crept in who long ago were designated for this condemnation! Ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and license, and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

     5 Now I want to remind you, although you once were fully aware of it, that Jesus, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward those who did not believe perished (earthly). 6 And the angels who left their original place and position, and proper place, he has kept in unbreakable ‘chains’ until the judgment of the great day. (Locked into their darkness, having become rebellious and evil, they cannot change their course back to their blessed state.)
