Two Days after Resurrection Day
Two Days after Resurrection Day
What had the priests done about the temple curtain which had torn from top to bottom? Had they proceeded with the Passover sacrifices as if nothing was different? Move along, move along, nothing to see here?
"Everyone" was still talking about the empty tomb, some to deny the resurrection, others to affirm it--not unlike today.
Some had probably gone about their business of daily life; what was one more dead or not dead Jew to them?
Some may have been in hiding, unsure what to make of it all.
Two days after Resurrection Day, which category do you fit into? Do you offer your sacrifices of works still, expecting them to be necessary yet? Do you talk about Easter and the great time you had celebrating it with family, friends, egg hunts, et al? Do you shrug the story of the event off as having nothing to do with you? Are you hiding your faith in Christ, unsure as to what response you will get from others should you reveal it?
