Description

Mark 16:1-8 The resurrection narrative in the Gospel of Mark is surprising not only for its abrupt ending, which has the women fleeing the tomb in amazement and awe, but also because the risen Jesus makes no appearance. In the earliest resurrection tradition Paul reports that Jesus was "raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time ..." (1 Cor 15:4-6). Moreover, the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, which use Mark as their primary source, and the Fourth Gospel, which may also count Mark among its sources, all include appearances of the risen Jesus.
