Daily Bible Reading - April 4th, 2021 | American Bible Society: Mark 16:1-20: Mark’s account of Jesus’s resurrection is often referred to as an empty tomb story because of the way it ends at verse 8, with the empty tomb being proof of Jesus’s resurrection. It is believed that the additional ending (verses 9-20) was added in the late second or early third century A.D. In today’s reading, several women go to the tomb to anoint Jesus’s body. When they arrive, a messenger tells them that Jesus has been raised to life. According to the additional ending, Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene and to his followers. Jesus tells his disciples what they must do and is then taken up to heaven.
