A Year in Luke/ActsНамуна

I love the first word at the beginning of this chapter (NRSV, ESV, NLT). In light of the Tragedy and confusion of chapter 23, Luke’s last chapter begins differently.
“But” is a clause that is used to introduce something that contrasts with what has already been mentioned, and something new is definitely about to be introduced! In fact, there has probably been no better time to use this clause in the English language than when the translators chose to start with “But.”
Sometimes we might feel like the first women who testified about the Empty Tomb, only to be met with people thinking it is an “idle tale” (v11). But the Resurrection is such good news that we cannot give up! Our lives should be like a “but” that encourages people to go and look for themselves.
