18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.



Ver. 18. Mary Magdalene came and told] She had told them and troubled them before with a conceit that they had (but to what end, or whither, she knew not) removed the Lord’s body; fitly therefore is she sent to assure them of the resurrection. And though loth to depart, yet she bridles her affections, though never so impetuous, and brings them to be wholly at Christ’s beck and check.
