Hey, it’s been awhile...
Matthew 28:1 reveals, “Now late on the sabbath day, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.”
Late on the sabbath day would have them coming to the tomb at sunset towards the coming darkness...(a dawning of darkness?)
But here Mark 16:1–2 depicts, “And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint him. And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the tomb when the sun was risen.”
Has them coming at the time the sun was rising...a more typical dawn and start of the first day of the week...all days actually
So if the day begins in the evening both these accounts are wrong...
And so when did He rise?
I mean, it is true, He was risen on Sunday but because He rose the day before...which ended at sunrise after the Sabbath was past...
Yes indeed:
“Today He is risen!”
He rose yesterday!!
