Commentary on Matthew (420)

(Vers. 6, 7.) Come and see the place where the Lord was laid. And quickly going, say to his disciples. That if you do not believe my words, you may believe in the empty tomb, and go with quick steps and announce to his disciples. Because he has risen, and behold, he goes before you to Galilee: there you will see him: behold, I have told you.

Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

There were those that knew Christ after the flesh; but now henceforth know we him so no more, 2 Cor. v. 16 . It is true, he had a body; but it is now a glorified body. They that make pictures and images of Christ, forget that he is not here, he is risen; our communion with him must be spiritual, by faith in his word, Rom. x.

Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

For the further proof of the resurrection of Christ, we have here the confession of the adversaries that were upon the guard; and there are two things which strengthen this testimony--that they were eye-witnesses, and did themselves see the glory of the resurrection, which none else did--and that they were enemies, set there to oppose and obstruct his resurrection.

Commentary on the Bible (1832)

Come, see the place - The tomb in which our Lord was laid was no doubt like the rest of the Jewish burying places, a receptacle for the several dead of a whole family, divided into separate niches, where each had his place.

The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Sermon No. 1081: “A Visit to the Tomb” (lightly modernized text, CCEL edition) (1872)

THE holy women, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, came to the sepulcher hoping to find there the body of their Lord which they intended to embalm. Their intention was good and their will was accepted before God, but, for all that, their desire was not gratified for the simple reason that it was contrary to God's design. It was at variance with even what Christ had foretold and plainly declared to them. "He is not here: for He is risen, as He said."
