The Resurrection (Matthew 28:1–10; Luke 24:1–12; John 20:1–9) 1When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so they could go and anoint the body of Jesus. 2Very early on the first day of the week,a just after sunrise, they went to the tomb. 3They were asking one another, “Who will roll away the stone from the entrance of the tomb?” 4But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away, even though it was extremely large. 5When they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. 6But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here! See the place where they put Him. 7But go, tell His disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see Him, just as He told you.’” 8So the women left the tomb and ran away, trembling and bewildered. And in their fear they did not say a word to anyone.b Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene (John 20:10–18) 9Early on the first day of the week, after Jesus had risen,c He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom He had driven out seven demons. 10She went and told those who had been with Him, who were mourning and weeping. 11And when they heard that Jesus was alive and she had seen Him, they did not believe it. Jesus Appears to Two Disciples (Luke 24:13–35) 12After this, Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them as they walked along in the country. 13And they went back and reported it to the rest, but they did not believe them either. The Great Commission (Matthew 28:16–20) 14Later, as they were eating, Jesus appeared to the Eleven and rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen. 15And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;d 18they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.” The Ascension (Luke 24:50–53; Acts 1:6–11) 19After the Lord Jesuse had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. 20And they went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked through them, confirming His word by the signs that accompanied it. Footnotes: 2 a Literally And very early on the first of the Sabbaths, 8 b Some early manuscripts end the Gospel of Mark after verse 8.

Bible Hub Mark 16 Summary The Resurrection Verses 1–4 – The Women at the Tomb At sunrise after the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bring spices to anoint Jesus’ body, find the extremely large stone rolled away, and enter the tomb. Verses 5–8 – Angelic Announcement and Flight Inside they meet a young man in a white robe who says Jesus is risen and gone ahead to Galilee; stunned and fearful, they flee and initially say nothing to anyone. Verses 9–11 – Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene Early on the first day of the week Jesus appears first to Mary Magdalene, who tells the mourning disciples, but they do not believe her. Verses 12–13 – Appearance on the Road Jesus appears in a different form to two disciples walking into the country; they report it, yet the rest still doubt. Verse 14 – Rebuke and Restoration of the Eleven Jesus appears to the Eleven at table, rebukes their unbelief and hardness of heart, and confirms His resurrection. Verses 15–18 – The Great Commission and Promised Signs Jesus commands, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature,” promising salvation to believers, judgment to unbelievers, and signs that will accompany those who believe. Verses 19–20 – Ascension and Continuing Witness After speaking with them, the Lord Jesus is taken up into heaven and sits at the right hand of God; the disciples go out preaching everywhere, and the Lord confirms the word with accompanying signs. Mark 16 transports us from the sorrow of the crucifixion to the joy of resurrection. It commences with an empty tomb and concludes with a full mission – the Great Commission. Through awe, fear, doubt, joy, and belief, we witness the transformative power of Jesus’ resurrection. Historical and Cultural Background • Burial Spices and Customs: Jewish burial involved wrapping the body with spices (John 19:40), intending both honor and odor control. Because Jesus died shortly before the Sabbath (Mark 15:42-47), final anointing waited until dawn Sunday. • The Rolling Stone: Archaeologists have uncovered first-century limestone tombs with groove-trench stones similar to Mark’s description, confirming the plausibility of the women’s concern (v. 3). • Women as First Witnesses: In the ancient world a woman’s testimony was often undervalued (Josephus, Antiq. 4.8.15). Mark’s inclusion underscores authenticity—no early Christian would invent a culturally “weak” witness unless it truly happened. Timeline of Resurrection Morning 1. Pre-dawn: Earthquake and stone moved (Matthew 28:2). 2. Just after sunrise: Women arrive (Mark 16:2). 3. Inside tomb: Angelic message (Mark 16:6-7). 4. Mary Magdalene runs to Peter and John (John 20:2). 5. Separate appearance to Mary (Mark 16:9). 6. Later that day: Road to Emmaus (Mark 16:12; Luke 24:13-35). 7. Evening: Appearance to gathered disciples (Mark 16:14; John 20:19-23). Textual Notes on Mark 16:9-20 Some early Greek manuscripts end at 16:8, yet the majority tradition, early translations (Latin, Syriac), and church fathers (Irenaeus c. AD 180) include vv. 9-20. The passage harmonizes with Luke 24 and Acts 1, and its message matches apostolic teaching. The Church has historically treated it as Scripture, so it is expounded here. Resurrection Evidence • Empty Tomb: Guarded (Matthew 27:65-66), sealed, and discovered empty by multiple witnesses. • Multiple Appearances: 1 Corinthians 15:3-8 lists over 500 witnesses, echoing Mark’s brief record. • Transformed Disciples: Cowardly followers become bold preachers (Acts 2–4), consistent with Mark 16:20. • Early Creedal Material: 1 Corinthians 15 is dated within five years of the cross, affirming resurrection faith was not a late myth. The Angel’s Message—“He is Risen” (16:6) Echoes Psalm 16:10, “You will not abandon me to Sheol,” and Jesus’ own prediction, Mark 8:31. The directive “go, tell His disciples and Peter” shows grace toward Peter after his denial (Mark 14:72; cf. John 21). Great Commission Connections “Preach the gospel to every creature” parallels Matthew 28:18-20 and Acts 1:8. Mark emphasizes: • Universal Scope—“all the world” (Romans 10:18). • Simple Response—“He who believes and is baptized will be saved” (Acts 2:38). Baptism is the public confession of inward faith, not a work earning salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9). • Serious Warning—“Whoever does not believe will be condemned” (John 3:18). • Accompanying Signs—Fulfilled in Acts: tongues (Acts 2), healings (Acts 3), exorcisms (Acts 16), immunity from snakebite (Acts 28). Archaeological Insights on the Tomb Multiple first-century rolling-stone tombs discovered around Jerusalem (e.g., Hazon Cave, Sanhedria Tombs) mirror Mark’s setting. Limestone ossuaries bearing names like “Yehosef” (Joseph) fit the profile of Joseph of Arimathea (Mark 15:43). The Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Garden Tomb remain traditional sites; both align with the biblical description: outside the city walls, near a crucifixion site (John 19:41-42). Geographical and Ascension Setting Luke pinpoints Bethany/Mount of Olives as the ascension site (Luke 24:50-51; Acts 1:9-12). Mark’s concise note that Jesus “was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God” ties back to Psalm 110:1, highlighting His authority to intercede (Hebrews 7:25) and rule (Ephesians 1:20-23). Practical Lessons for Disciples Today 1. Bold Faith Despite Fear: The women’s initial silence (v. 8) shows human weakness; yet God still uses imperfect followers. 2. Believe the Testimony: The Eleven doubted (v. 14), but Jesus patiently convinced them, encouraging modern readers to wrestle honestly yet submit to truth. 3. Preach to All: “Every creature” removes cultural, racial, and social barriers (Galatians 3:28). 4. Rely on the Risen Lord’s Presence: “The Lord worked with them” (v. 20) assures believers that mission is empowered, not self-generated. 5. Expect God’s Power: While not chasing signs, Christians trust the same God who verified the message in Acts is still able today (Hebrews 13:8). 6. Live with Resurrection Hope: Jesus’ bodily resurrection guarantees ours (1 Corinthians 15:20-23), shaping daily courage and purpose. Old Testament Foreshadowing • Jonah—“three days and three nights” (Jonah 1:17; Matthew 12:40). • Feast of Firstfruits—Resurrection on the first day after the Sabbath during Passover week (Leviticus 23:10-11). • Isaiah 53—Suffering Servant who “will see the light of life” (v. 11). Harmony with Other Gospels Mark’s concise style leaves space filled by: • Matthew 28—Expanded angelic details and guard bribery. • Luke 24—Lengthy Emmaus narrative. • John 20–21—Detailed interactions with Mary, Thomas, breakfast by the sea. Diversity without contradiction shows independent witnesses converging on the same truth. From Resurrection to Acts Mark ends with mission set in motion; Acts picks up the story: • Power: Holy Spirit at Pentecost (Acts 2) realizing the promise of accompanying signs. • Spread: Jerusalem → Judea & Samaria → ends of the earth (Acts 1:8). • Boldness: Peter, John, and later Paul mirror the transformation predicted by Jesus’ commission. Key Takeaway Verse Mark 16:15: “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” This marching order remains the heartbeat of Christian life—rooted in the empty tomb, reaching to the ends of the earth, until the risen Christ returns. Connections to Additional Scriptures 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 Paul’s summary of the gospel, emphasizing the death and resurrection of Jesus. Matthew 28:18-20 The Great Commission, paralleling Mark’s account and highlighting the authority of Jesus. Acts 1:8 The promise of the Holy Spirit empowering believers to be witnesses, connecting to the signs mentioned in Mark 16. Romans 6:4 The symbolism of baptism as a participation in the death and resurrection of Jesus. Teaching Points The Empty Tomb Mark 16:1-4 describes how Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome found the stone rolled away from the tomb. This signifies the power of God to overcome death and the grave. The Angelic Message In verses 5-7, an angel announces to the women that Jesus has risen. This message is central to the Christian faith, affirming that Jesus is alive and victorious over sin and death. The Great Commission Mark 16:15-16 records Jesus' command to Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. This underscores the responsibility of believers to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Signs and Wonders Verses 17-18 mention signs that will accompany believers, such as casting out demons and healing the sick. These signs confirm the power and presence of God working through His people. The Ascension Mark 16:19-20 concludes with Jesus' ascension into heaven and the disciples' obedience in preaching the gospel, demonstrating the continuation of Jesus' mission through His followers. Practical Applications Embrace the Resurrection Live with the assurance that Jesus is alive and active in your life, bringing hope and transformation. Share the Gospel Take seriously the call to evangelize, understanding that the resurrection is the foundation of the message we share. Expect God’s Power Be open to the miraculous and the supernatural as you serve God, trusting that He will confirm His word through signs and wonders. Live with Purpose Recognize that Jesus' ascension means He reigns as Lord, and we are called to live under His authority and guidance. People 1.

The Power of the Resurrection The resurrection of Jesus is the cornerstone of our faith, and Mark 16 opens with this miraculous event. The women who went to the tomb found it empty, and an angel declared, "He has risen! He is not here" (Mark 16:6). This moment is a powerful reminder that Jesus conquered death, offering us eternal life. The resurrection is not just a historical event; it is the foundation of our hope and the assurance of our salvation. 2. Faith Over Fear When the women discovered the empty tomb, they were initially afraid. Yet, the angel encouraged them, saying, "Do not be alarmed" (Mark 16:6). This teaches us to choose faith over fear. In our daily lives, we may face uncertainties and challenges, but we can trust in God's promises and His power to overcome any obstacle. 3. The Importance of Witnessing The angel instructed the women to "go, tell His disciples" (Mark 16:7). This highlights the importance of sharing the Good News. As believers, we are called to be witnesses of Christ's resurrection and His transformative power in our lives. Sharing our faith is not just a duty; it is a privilege that can bring hope and salvation to others. 4. Jesus Meets Us in Our Doubts When Jesus appeared to the disciples, He rebuked them for their unbelief (Mark 16:14). Yet, He did not abandon them. Instead, He met them in their doubts and strengthened their faith. This reassures us that even when we struggle with doubt, Jesus is patient and willing to guide us back to faith. 5. The Great Commission Jesus commanded His followers, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark 16:15). This is our mission as Christians. We are called to spread the message of salvation to all corners of the earth, reaching out with love and compassion to those who have not yet heard the Good News. 6. Signs of Belief Jesus promised that signs would accompany those who believe: "In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues" (Mark 16:17). These signs are not just miraculous acts; they are evidence of the Holy Spirit's work in our lives. As we grow in faith, we can expect to see God's power manifest in and through us. 7. The Assurance of Salvation "He who believes and is baptized will be saved" (Mark 16:16). This verse assures us that salvation is available to all who believe in Jesus and follow Him. Baptism is an outward expression of our inward faith, symbolizing our new life in Christ. It is a beautiful reminder of the grace and mercy we receive through Him. 8. The Ascension of Christ Mark 16 concludes with Jesus being "taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God" (Mark 16:19). The ascension signifies Jesus' authority and His ongoing intercession for us. Knowing that our Savior reigns in heaven gives us confidence and peace, knowing He is in control of all things. 9. The Empowerment of the Holy Spirit The disciples "went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them" (Mark 16:20). This demonstrates the empowerment of the Holy Spirit in their ministry. As believers, we are not alone in our mission. The Holy Spirit equips and empowers us to fulfill God's purposes, providing strength and guidance every step of the way. 10. The Call to Action Mark 16 is a call to action for every believer. It challenges us to live out our faith boldly, share the Gospel with others, and trust in the power of the resurrection. As we embrace these lessons, we can experience the fullness of life that Jesus offers and make a lasting impact in the world for His glory. Topics 1. The Resurrection of Jesus (Mark 16:1-8) This section describes the discovery of the empty tomb by Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome. They find the stone rolled away and encounter a young man in a white robe who tells them that Jesus has risen. The Greek word for "risen" (ἐγήγερται, egēgertai) emphasizes the divine action of God raising Jesus from the dead. 2. Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene (Mark 16:9-11) Jesus first appears to Mary Magdalene after His resurrection. Despite her testimony, the disciples do not believe her. This highlights the theme of initial disbelief among the followers of Jesus. 3. Jesus Appears to Two Disciples (Mark 16:12-13) Jesus appears in a different form to two disciples walking in the country. They report back to the others, but again, they are not believed. This reflects the struggle to comprehend the resurrection. 4. The Great Commission (Mark 16:14-18) Jesus appears to the eleven disciples and rebukes them for their unbelief. He commissions them to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. The Greek term for "preach" (κηρύξατε, kēryxate) implies a public proclamation of the gospel message. 5. The Ascension of Jesus (Mark 16:19-20) Jesus is taken up into heaven and sits at the right hand of God. The disciples go out and preach everywhere, with the Lord working through them and confirming the message with accompanying signs. The ascension signifies Jesus' exaltation and authority. Themes 1. The Resurrection of Jesus Mark 16:1-6 describes the discovery of the empty tomb by Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome. The angelic announcement, "He has risen! He is not here," (Mark 16:6) emphasizes the foundational Christian belief in the resurrection. The Greek term "ἠγέρθη" (ēgerthē) underscores the divine action of being raised from the dead. 2. The Commission to Spread the Gospel In Mark 16:15, Jesus commands His disciples, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." This theme highlights the Great Commission, emphasizing the responsibility of believers to evangelize. The Greek word "κηρύξατε" (kēryxate) means to proclaim or herald, indicating the authoritative nature of this mission. 3. Faith and Salvation Mark 16:16 states, "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." This theme underscores the importance of faith and baptism in the process of salvation. The Greek word "πιστεύσας" (pisteusas) for "believes" indicates a trust or reliance on Jesus for salvation. 4. Signs and Miracles Verses 17-18 describe the signs that will accompany believers, such as casting out demons and healing the sick. This theme reflects the continuation of Jesus' miraculous work through His followers. The Greek term "σημεῖα" (sēmeia) for "signs" suggests these acts serve as divine authentication of the gospel message. 5. The Ascension of Jesus Mark 16:19 records Jesus' ascension into heaven, where He "sat down at the right hand of God." This theme affirms Jesus' exaltation and authority. The Greek phrase "ἐκάθισεν ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ Θεοῦ" (ekathisen ek dexiōn tou Theou) signifies a position of honor and power. 6. The Disciples' Obedience and Proclamation The chapter concludes with the disciples going out to preach everywhere, as described in Mark 16:20. This theme highlights their obedience to Jesus' command and the effective spread of the gospel. The Greek word "ἐκήρυξαν" (ekēryxan) for "preached" again emphasizes the act of proclaiming the message of Christ.
