God 527 – The Resurrection of Jesus Christ You can follow along with my notes as I read the Scriptures below. A while ago, I taught a class on "The Last Supper, through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ." I designed a syllabus for the listeners to follow along as I read the Scriptures of each event from all four Gospels, in chronological order. I did this to make it easier to follow along as we rapidly move from one Gospel to another. If you would like to listen to the entire class, the Audio Class and Syllabus are available on my website, stevejaynes.com, under the Online Classes and Teachings page. There's a link to my website on the show notes below. Today I am going to read part of that syllabus on "The Resurrection of Jesus Christ." The Resurrection is the center point of all history. O.T. And N.T. God's masterstroke in His master plan is and was the New Birth, God's royal household of believers. The three days after the burial of Jesus there is very little recorded in the scriptures. But very important to understand. Matthew 27:62-66 "Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation [which was the Passover, The high Sabbath; Wednesday and Thursday], the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate, 63, Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again. 64, Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first. 65, Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can. 66, So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch." This was to ensure that no disciple could enter to anoint His body or steal it. Mark 16:1 "And when the Sabbath [the high Sabbath, which was on Thursday] was past [this made it Friday], Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him." Luke 23:56 "And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day [the weekly Sabbath day which is Saturday] according to the commandment." Matthew 28:1 "In the end of the Sabbath [the weekly Sabbath, Saturday evening], as it began to dawn [dusk] toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre." Jesus died on Wednesday late in the afternoon, on the day of the preparation, just before the Passover was to start. Then, on Thursday, the Passover, the priests came to Pilate and asked for the guards' watch. The following day, Friday, the women went to buy sweet spices. but they could not anoint the body because of the guards. Saturday was the weekly Sabbath, and they rested, or did no work, because of the commandment. Then late in the afternoon on the weekly Sabbath the women went to see the sepulcher to see how they might be able to anoint the body on the first day of the week, our Sunday. Then shortly after the two women left, we read this: Matthew 28:2-4 "And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. 3, His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: 4, And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men." God would not leave Jesus in the grave any longer than 72 hours. What we are about to read chronologically happened very early Sunday morning. This is when most start the teaching. John 20:1-17 "The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. 2, Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. 3, Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre. 4, So they ran both together: and the other disciple did out run Peter, and came first to the sepulchre. 5, And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in. 6, Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, 7, And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. 8, Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed. 9, For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead. 10, Then the disciples went away again unto their own home. 11, But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre, 12, And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.13, And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest ...
