1 | Jesus' body washed?? | Mark 16:1 | rondc | 72238 | ||
I was looking at a TV program when one of the characters mentioned after Jesus had died on the cross, that his body was taken down and washed. I know about it being wrapped with spies but washed? Is this correct? If so, where in scripture is it. Is this part of Jewish ritual around "Day of Preparation"? Just curious. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks. | ||||||
2 | Jesus' body washed?? | Mark 16:1 | Robert Nicholson | 72239 | ||
Greetings rondc: We do not have many details in the Bible about the buriel of the Lord Jesus Christ. In Matt. 27:57 to 60 we find that a rich man called Joseph(of Armithea) and Nicodemus (of John 3) begged for the body of Jesus from Pilate. "when Joseph had taken the body he wrapped it in clean linen cloth and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock" v. 59-60 This action was the fulfilment of Isaiah53:9 "he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth". The disciples had forgotten his words that he would rise again in 3 days. They were treating his body as they would any other Jewish loved one. This is why we find in Mark 16:1 that the women went to the tomb after the sabbath with sweet spices, that they might anoit him" In Luke 23:53-56 supports the idea that they were following the Jewish traditions regarding his body. There was no corruption to his body as prophecied by the psalmist "For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption." Psalm 16:10 More importantly in Luke 24:3 "they entered in, (to the tomb) and found not the body of the Lord Jesus" They were perplexed and were reminded of the words of Jesus "The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again" Luke 24:7 The triump of Calavary is that "he arose" bodily from the dead and that the truth of his resurrection if the foundation of our faith in him. Praise his Name Robert |
