Mark 16

Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
(Matthew 28.1-8; Luke 24.1-12; John 20.1-10)
1After the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene, Salome, and Mary the mother of James bought some spices to put on Jesus' body. 2Very early on Sunday morning, just as the sun was coming up, they went to the tomb. 3On their way, they were asking one another, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance for us?” 4But when they looked, they saw that the stone had already been rolled away. And it was a huge stone!
5The women went into the tomb, and on the right side they saw a young man in a white robe sitting there. They were alarmed.
6The man said, “Don't be alarmed! You are looking for Jesus from Nazareth, who was nailed to a cross. God has raised him to life, and he isn't here. You can see the place where they put his body. 7Now go and tell his disciples, and especially Peter, that he will go ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.”#Mt 26.32; Mk 14.28.
8When the women ran from the tomb, they were confused and shaking all over. They were too afraid to tell anyone what had happened.
One old ending to Mark's Gospel#16.9 One old ending to Mark's Gospel: Verses 9-20 are not in some manuscripts.
Jesus appears to his followers
Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene
(Matthew 28.9,10; John 20.11-18)
9Very early on the first day of the week, after Jesus had risen to life, he appeared to Mary Magdalene. Earlier he had forced seven demons out of her. 10She left and told his friends, who were crying and mourning. 11Even though they heard that Jesus was alive and that Mary had seen him, they would not believe it.
Jesus appears to two disciples
(Luke 24.13-35)
12Later, Jesus appeared in another form to two disciples, as they were on their way out of the city. 13But when these disciples told what had happened, the others would not believe.
What Jesus' followers must do
(Matthew 28.16-20; Luke 24.36-49; John 20.19-23; Acts 1.6-8)
14Afterwards, Jesus appeared to his eleven disciples as they were eating. He scolded them because they were too stubborn to believe the ones who had seen him after he had been raised to life. 15Then he told them:#Ac 1.8.
Go and preach the good news to everyone in the world. 16Anyone who believes me and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe me will be condemned. 17Everyone who believes me will be able to do wonderful things. By using my name they will force out demons, and they will speak new languages. 18They will handle snakes and will drink poison and not be hurt. They will also heal sick people by placing their hands on them.
Jesus returns to heaven
(Luke 24.50-53; Acts 1.9-11)
19After the Lord Jesus had said these things to the disciples, he was taken back up to heaven where he sat down at the right side#16.19 right side: See the note at 12.36. of God.#Ac 1.9-11. 20Then the disciples left and preached everywhere. The Lord was with them, and the miracles they performed proved that their message was true.
Another old ending to Mark's gospel#16.9,10 Another old ending to Mark's Gospel: Some manuscripts and early translations have both this shorter ending and the longer one (verses 9-20).
9-10The women quickly told Peter and his friends what had happened. Later, Jesus sent the disciples to the east and to the west with his sacred and everlasting message of how people can be saved for ever.

Mark (Mrk) 16
16
1When Shabbat was over, Miryam of Magdala, Miryam the mother of Ya‘akov, and Shlomit bought spices in order to go and anoint Yeshua. 2Very early the next day, just after sunrise, they went to the tomb. 3They were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone from the entrance to the tomb for us?” 4Then they looked up and saw that the stone, even though it was huge, had been rolled back already. 5On entering the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right; and they were dumbfounded. 6But he said, “Don’t be so surprised! You’re looking for Yeshua from Natzeret, who was executed on the stake. He has risen, he’s not here! Look at the place where they laid him. 7But go and tell his talmidim, especially Kefa, that he is going to the Galil ahead of you. You will see him there, just as he told you.” 8Trembling but ecstatic they went out and fled from the tomb, and they said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.
9When Yeshua rose early Sunday, he appeared first to Miryam of Magdala, from whom he had expelled seven demons. 10She went and told those who had been with him, as they were crying and mourning. 11But when they heard that he was alive and that she had seen him, they wouldn’t believe it.
12After that, Yeshua appeared in another form to two of them as they were walking into the country. 13They went and told the others, but they didn’t believe them either.
14Later, Yeshua appeared to the Eleven as they were eating, and he reproached them for their lack of trust and their spiritual insensitivity in not having believed those who had seen him after he had risen. 15Then he said to them, “As you go throughout the world, proclaim the Good News to all creation. 16Whoever trusts and is immersed will be saved; whoever does not trust will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who do trust: in my name they will drive out demons, speak with new tongues, 18not be injured if they handle snakes or drink poison, and heal the sick by laying hands on them.”
19So then, after he had spoken to them, the Lord Yeshua was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God. 20And they went out and proclaimed everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the message by the accompanying signs.
