Saturday evening, when the Sabbath ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome went out and purchased burial spices so they could anoint Jesus’ body.
As his body was taken away, the women from Galilee followed and saw the tomb where his body was placed.Then they went home and prepared spices and ointments to anoint his body. But by the time they were finished the Sabbath had begun, so they rested as required by the law.But very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.They found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance.
