Mark 16:1-6 - "And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2 And very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb when the sun had risen. 3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?” 4 And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back;—it was very large. 5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed. 6 And he said to them, “Do not be amazed; you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen, he is not here"

Mark 1:24 - "'What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God.'"

"The end-of-Sabbath context is also important because this period was marked in Jewish homes by the Havdālāh service, in which God’s creation of the world was celebrated; this custom seems to go back to Second Temple times [...] In some rabbinic and Jewish magical texts and formulae, the Havdālāh period is associated with the fight against demonic powers and other magical procedures [....] These associations of the Havdālāh period perhaps provide part of the background for Mark’s picture of the divine act of eschatological re-creation whereby Jesus heals and casts out demons in Peter’s house at the conclusion of the Sabbath." (Marcus 200)

John 13:3 - "Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going to God"
