Mark 16:1 And the sabbath having past, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James, and Salome, bought spices, that having come, they may anoint him,

Mark 16:2 and early in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, they come unto the sepulchre, at the rising of the sun,

Mark 16:3 and they said among themselves, `Who shall roll away for us the stone out of the door of the sepulchre?'

Study Lenses

The verse centers on "sabbath", "having", "past", "mary", "magdalene", "james", and "salome". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "sabbath" and "having", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The next verse adds "and early in the morning of the...", so "sabbath" and "having" should be read forward into that movement. In Mark context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "sabbath" and "having" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
