The Gospel According to Peter

bullet "The Empty Tomb," The Jesus Database, an online annotated inventory of the traditions concerning the life and teachings of Jesus. Dr. Gregory C. Jenks, FaithFutures Foundation.
bulletPatristic Commentary from the Catena Aurea.
bulletFrom the Catena Aurea, Patristic Commentary by St Thomas Aquinas.
bullet "Christ's Resurrection," Mark 16:1-8, Martin Luther, c. 1525.
bullet "The Fruit & Power of Christ's Resurrection," Mark 16:1-8, Martin Luther, c. 1525.
bulletFrom the Geneva Notes.
bulletFrom Matthew Henry's Commentary.
bullet"Nicodemus brought a large quantity of spices, but these good women did not think that enough. The respect others show to Christ, should not hinder us from showing our respect."
bulletThe Nature of Christ's Resurrection, Samuel Willard, c. 1700.
bullet"The precise nature of Christ's resurrection consists of two things: there is something internal, the reunion of his soul and body, and external, his coming out of the grave after that reunion."
bulletFrom Wesley's Notes.
bullet"Who shall roll us away the stone - This seems to have been the only difficulty they apprehended. So they knew nothing of Pilate's having sealed the stone, and placed a guard of soldiers there."
bulletFrom the Commentary on the Whole Bible (Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
bullet"In Mt 28:2 he is called "the angel of the Lord"; but here he is described as he appeared to the eye, in the bloom of a life that knows no decay. In Matthew he is represented as sitting on the stone outside the sepulchre; but since even there he says, "Come, see the place where the Lord lay" (Mt 28:6), he seems, as ALFORD says, to have gone in with them from without; only awaiting their arrival to accompany them into the hallowed spot, and instruct them about it."
bulletFrom The People's New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891.
bullet"Observe that as Christ's first appearance is to Mary Magdalene (John 20:18), out of whom he had cast seven devils, so his special message is to Peter, who had denied him. A touching commentary on our Savior's saying that he came to save sinners."
bulletContemporary Commentary, Studies, and Exegesis:
bullet Comments (commentary) and Clippings (technical notes for in-depth study), Chris Haslam, Anglican Diocese of Montreal.
bullet A Brief Commentary on the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 16, Carl W. Conrad. (Click superscript numbers for commentary.)
bullet "Women Find Tomb Empty," "The Missing Ending of Mark," Michael A. Turton's Historical Commentary on the Gospel of Mark, "a complete verse-by-verse commentary on the Gospel of Mark, focusing on the historicity of people, places, events, and sayings in the world of the Gospel of Mark."
bullet "Now What?" Kate Huey, Weekly Seeds, iucc.org, 2009.
bullet"Fred Craddock suggests that Mark's "accent" on the cross is the very reason that he didn't include resurrection appearances that might pull focus away from it as the meaning of discipleship: 'For Mark, the resurrection served the cross; Easter did not eradicate but vindicated Good Friday.'"
bullet "The Women at the Tomb," Gospel Analysis, Sermons from Seattle, Pastor Edward F. Markquart, Grace Lutheran Church, Seattle, Washington. Detailed background and exegesis.
bullet "An Amazing Event," Easter Sunday, Larry Broding's Word-Sunday.Com: A Catholic Resource for This Sunday's Gospel. Adult Study, Children's Story, Family Activity, Support Materials.
bullet"Have you ever seen or heard of an event so disconcerting, it "stopped you in your tracks?" So amazing, you just had to talk about it to others?"
bulletExegetical Notes by Brian Stoffregen at CrossMarks.
bullet"It can be easy to "see" the risen Christ in a packed Easter Sunday worship service, or perhaps even in a sunrise or the spring flowers blooming; but where is the risen Jesus when the people return home -- to the drudgery of the same old things? The risen Christ has gone there ahead of them. They will see him."
bullet "Who Will Roll the Stone Away?" Rev. Bryan Findlayson, Lectionary Bible Studies and Sermons, Pumpkin Cottage Ministry Resources. Includes detailed textual notes.
bullet Join the Feast, Mark 16:1-8, John Carroll, Union PSCE, 2009.
bullet"The God of Mark’s ending works in our world in ways that defy expectation and elude our every attempt at control."
bullet Marginally Mark, by Brian McGowan, Anglican priest in Western Australia.
bullet"Perhaps some of us out in the daily margins of life are where the women are as they approach the tomb: who is going to help us roll the stone away? What is the stone in our case? What's locking not Jesus but us in?"
bullet "He Has Risen: He Is Not Here!" Jerry Goebel, One Family Outreach. "Focus on scripture from a justice perspective." Exegesis, study, and teen study and activities.
bullet"What happened that morning was not the result of a group of true believers (they came to properly bury Jesus—not to await his resurrection as Jesus prophesied), instead we have a small group of broken women whose love for their friend was even greater than their expectations of him."
bullet "Dangling Gospel," Thomas G. Long, The Christian Century, 2006.
bullet"What do we see when we read the Gospel of Mark again, this time with postresurrection eyes?"
bullet "He Is Not Here," Fred Craddock, The Christian Century, 2003.
bullet"...even Mark's brief Easter account is full of Good News."
bullet "He Is Risen!" Samuel Wells, The Christian Century, 2000.
bullet"EASTER MORNING is the defining place and moment of Christian space and time."
bullet "Ending without End," Patrick J. Willson, The Christian Century, 1994.
bullet"This is the way Easter dawns upon us: with promise and apprehension."
bullet"The Gospel of Mark from Beginning to End," James T. Dennison Jr. in Kerux: The Online Journal of Biblical Theology (Reformed)
bullet"Mark begins and ends his gospel with schism-a division, a parting, a rending-the schism of the heavens (chapter 1: 10); the schism of the veil in the temple (chapter 15:38)."
bullet "Beginning Again," Tim Geddert, Direction, 2004.
bullet"Of all the footnotes to be found in modern translations of the Bible, surely none are more puzzling (perhaps disturbing) than those that comment on the ending of Mark."
bulletArticles & Background:
bullet "Mark 16," Resurrection of Jesus, The Empty Tomb, Resurrection, Beloved Disciple, Mary Magdalene, Wikipedia.
bullet "Intertextuality, the Hermeneutics of 'Other,' and Mark 16:6-7: a New but Not New Challenge for Biblical Interpreters," Michael Trainor, Biblical Theology Bulletin, 2005.
bullet"A hearing of the Markan text from the perspective of the hermeneutics of 'other' reveals startling insights into the gospel's meaning of the resurrection and its implications for a world that suspects the other."
bullet"Burying the Dead in Simple White Shrouds," by Anita Diamont, at Jewish Heritage Online Magazine's Topic of the Month: Colors.
bullet"The traditional clothing for burying the dead are tahrihim, simple white shrouds. Their use dates back to Rabbi Simeon ben Gamliel II, who, in the second century CE, asked to be buried in inexpensive linen garments."
bullet"Women Transformed: The Ending of Mark is the Beginning of Wisdom," by Marie Sabin in CrossCurrents, Summer 1998.
bullet"Mark's assertion that "they said nothing to anyone" must be taken as the final Markan irony. The statement echoes Jesus' first charge to the cured leper "not to say anything to anyone" (1:44); as one hears the echo, one must also remember that the leper immediately "went out and began to talk freely" (1:45). The leper became a preacher; so here, the very fact of Mark's Gospel is testimony to the eloquence of the women."
bulletA number of examples of socio-rhetorical interpretations of Mark 15 - 16, from "Examples of Socio-Rhetorical Interpretation in Mark," at Dr. Vernon K. Robbins' Encyclopedia of Socio-Rhetorical Interpretation.
bullet(From "Patron/Client Contract") "...Jesus accepts the will of God, the patron benefactor of all, including Jesus. In return for his willingness to die a humiliating death on the cross, God transforms Jesus' corpse into a body that can rise up from death and be absent from the tomb."
bullet "Mark and Mystery," Linda Maloney, Currents in Theology and Mission, 2003.
bullet"What do you say when the end of the world is announced? What would you say?"
bullet "The Changing Role of Women in the Early Christian World," Howard Clark Kee, University of Pennsylvania. Theology Today, 1992.
bullet"If the church in our time were to take with full seriousness the radical openness toward women and their participation in the life of God's people that characterized the movement at the outset, it could result in a significant contribution toward renewal of both the church and the human race."
bullet "Blurring the Boundaries: A Response to Howard C. Kee," Virginia Burrus, The Theological School at Drew University. Theology Today, 1992.
bullet"...a blurring of religious or cultural boundaries in our historical reconstructions may cut against the smugness that frequently creeps into Christian discussions of Judaism and other religious traditions. The roots of a distinctive Christian feminism would appear to be entangled in Jewish and pagan traditions, rather than emerging in pure and radical opposition to those traditions. Second, a blurring of chronological boundaries in our historical reconstructions may cut against the tendency to locate orthodox or authentic Christianity almost purely in a statically defined "golden age" of the distant past. After all, how liberating is it for Christian women to be invited to focus exclusively on "the insights of Jesus and Paul"?"
bullet "The Red-Haired Saint: Is Mary Magdalene the Key to the Easter Narratives?" James T. Baker, The Christian Century, 1977. Religion Online.
