Who Exactly Was At The Tomb Of Jesus On The First Easter Sunday Morning?
Skeptics of Jesus’ Resurrection often point to the variations in the four Gospels regarding who were the first of His followers to arrive at the tomb to discover that it was empty on the first Easter morning.
Six different women are mentioned in the four Gospels as being among the first to arrive at the empty tomb, including Mary Magdalene, Mary the Mother of Jesus, Mary the Mother of James, the “Other Mary,” Joana and Salome.
The conventional wisdom on secular campuses and in sophisticated secular intellectual media is that these “discrepancies” are clearly evidence that the Gospels are not reliable accounts of the discovery of the empty tomb, which justifies even more questions about the credibility of everything we are told by the Gospels about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
But that’s just not true, as Eric Lyons of the Apologetics Press makes clear in the following 8:05 video. Enjoy and share this post with your friends, enemies and strangers on Twitter, Gettr, Parler, and Facebook!
