—Mark 15:42-47
by: Andrew J. Camenga.
As Mary, Mary, and Salome watched, Jesus died (v. 40). Later, after Joseph had permission to inter the body, Mary and Mary watched them place the body in a tomb and close the tomb with a stone. They had heard him speak. They had seen miracles. They watched him die, and they watched others bury the body. The time had come for them to mourn. Jesus was surely dead.
Death had swallowed the man who came to give us life.
