On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone--which Mark (Mr 16:4) says was "very great." and setting a watch--to guard it. But while they are trying to prevent the resurrection of the Prince of Life, God makes use of their precautions for His own ends.
