LK 24:1 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
LK 24:2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
LK 24:3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
They come bringing spices for the dead, but their spices would never be used for Jesus was not there!
LK 24:4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
LK 24:5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
LK 24:6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
LK 24:7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
LK 24:8 And they remembered his words,
At first they were perplexed. Where was the body of Jesus and why is the stone rolled away? Then the angels tell them that He is risen! They say, “Why seek ye the living among the dead” Then they remind them that Jesus foretold that this would happen. Jesus had told them that He must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. They then remembered His words. The wonderful truth of it broke down upon them. And look at how they reacted.
LK 24:9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
They now had the greatest news the world has ever had. There is a risen Saviour. And what did they do? How did they react to this news? They told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest. They immediately went out and told others. Not only to the eleven, but it says to all the rest.
Should we not react the same way? Is not the greatest news in the world worth sharing?
