1 | Did Mary Magdalene see the risen Christ | John | greentwiga | 141683 | ||
There are some confusing details, to be sure. Mark - Mary M watched watched the cruxification, Followed Joseph to see where Jesus was laid. The went to the tomb early and met an Angel and left. In Luke, they meet two angels and leave to tell the disciples. In John they see the empty tomb and tell the disciples. in both Mark and John, after telling the eleven, they (inc Mary M) meet Jesus. Only on the second visit are they said to cry. In Matt, Mary M and another go to the tomb and meet an Angel. Here the womenrun to tell the disciples. Suddenly Jesus appears. This can be read that Jesus appeared before or after they told the disciples. Reading it to be after agrees with the other three Gospels.The next mention of the disciples is going to Galilee. Their visit to the tomb would better fit before Jesus appeared to the Women. Therefore, it was on the second visit. Greentwiga |

Thank you for your response. It helps to read it as if it is a summation of the events. Then it makes more since. The skeptics have a real problem with the author’s accounts. I have to admit I was taken in by some of it and it hasn't helped me spiritually. But I have found almost all of the critics to be looking for loopholes instead of looking for truth. Thanks again. |

Very good. It is smart to watch for people choosing the most awkward interpretation and then complaining about the Bible. We are warned about such people in books like the pastoral epistles Greentwiga |
