20 v 5-7 that she (Mary Magdalene) finds the stones have been removed and winding sheet unwound:Īnd when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away for it was very great.Īnd he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying yet went he not in. Seeing certain life in the laid body she comes back on the third day after the Sabbath in search of an alive Jesus so as to massage him.Īnd it is mentioned in the Gospel of Mark Ch. But naturally, she is not going to proclaim: ‘He is alive’, otherwise, they would put him to death again. It is because she was the only one besides Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus who gave the burial birth to Jesus and when Jesus body was brought forth she might have seen some life in the laid body. So, why is Mary Magdalene going to the tomb to massage Jesus Christ who is supposedly dead on the third day according to the Christians? – Do you know why? Question: Do Muslims massage dead bodies on the third day? Question: Do Christians massage dead bodies on the third day? Question: Do Jews massage dead bodies on the third day? Have you ever heard Jews massaging dead bodies on the third day? From this Hebrew word, masaaha was derived the term Messiah which is known as Maseeh in Arabic and if you translate to Greek, it means Christos which was latinized to deduce the word Christ – the anointed one. The word here is anoint, the original Hebrew word is masaaha which means to anoint to rub to massage. Thus, Mary Magdalene goes to massage Jesus Christ to anoint him.

16 v 1:Īnd when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome had bought sweet pieces, that they might come and anoint him. – The reply to this question is given in the preceding verse, in the Gospel of Mark Ch. Question: Why should Mary Magdalene go to the tomb on the third day after Jesus Christ was supposedly dead? The first day of the week is Sunday and it was the first day of the week that Mary Magdalene went to the tomb. This day implies a Sunday because the Sabbath day for the Jews is Saturday. The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.Īnd very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. It is mentioned in the Gospel of John Ch. If you remember the story of Mary Magdalene when she went to the tomb on the third day.
