They came on the first day of week, first thing in morningThey knew what spices and ointments to bring,- and knew what they were doing – they had done this before• what they did not know, was that overnight their world had changed• so what they found at the tomb was not what they expected- I love the lines:Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen• they had come to the wrong place, looking for wrong thing◦ they came to a cemetery looking for a dead body◦ but Jesus wasn’t there – and he wasn’t a corpse• they were wrong that morning – but not they were not the only ones who were wrong◦ the apostles were wrong to not believe them◦ the two on the road to Emmaus were wrong when they said, "We had hoped" – using the past tense(Jesus still was "the one to redeem Israel"; v. 21)◦ the disciples were wrong when Jesus appeared to them and they mistook him for a ghostBut they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit (Lk. 24:37)
