On the Easter Sunday, we will look into Mark 16:1-8. After the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome go to Jesus’ tomb to anoint His body with spices. When they arrive, they find the stone rolled away from the entrance, and a young man dressed in white is sitting inside the tomb. The man tells them not to be afraid, explaining that Jesus has risen and is no longer there. He instructs them to go and tell the disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of them to Galilee, where they will see Him.

The women are initially filled with fear and amazement and run away from the tomb, saying nothing to anyone because they are too afraid. This passage marks the beginning of the resurrection story, with the message of Jesus' victory over death being revealed.
