As we continue the Biblical Passion of Christ
in His resurrection and appearing, we will hear
of Mary Magdalene, Peter and John and their
first reactions to the empty tomb where Jesus
had been laid.
It is interesting to note that Peter and John
had not yet understood the Scripture that their
Messiah, Jesus, must rise from the dead.
Mary Magdalene is especially precious in this
passage as she encounters the risen Lord, not
knowing that He was Jesus.
On the Unchanging Word Bible
study, Dr. Mitchell will be speaking
about Mary Magdalene. We are in John
chapter 20 beginning at verse 13.
Here, We see Mary weeping in sorrow when
two angels ask her a question. After this
she then turns to see someone else who
then asks her two more questions.
She responds by not answering these questions,
but asking where he had put the body of
Jesus. Jesus speaks her name,
and immediately she recognizes His voice.
Dr. Mitchell brings out the fact we
who know Jesus as savior are joined
to a risen savior. From now on we do
not know Jesus according to the flesh
per se, but we know the Lord Jesus Christ
who is risen, ascended to His Father
and our Father, to His God and our God
and now glorified at God's right hand.
