Entered and beholdeth ( eisēlthen kai theōrei ).

Aorist active and present active indicative. Peter impulsively went on in and beholds (theōrei , vivid term again, but of careful notice, theōreō , not a mere glance blepō such as John gave in Joh 20:5).

Wesley: Joh 20:6 - -- and the napkin folded up - The angels who ministered to him when he rose, undoubtedly folded up the napkin and linen clothes.

and the napkin folded up - The angels who ministered to him when he rose, undoubtedly folded up the napkin and linen clothes.

JFB: Joh 20:3-10 - -- These particulars have a singular air of artless truth about them. Mary, in her grief, runs to the two apostles who were soon to be so closely associa...

These particulars have a singular air of artless truth about them. Mary, in her grief, runs to the two apostles who were soon to be so closely associated in proclaiming the Saviour's resurrection, and they, followed by Mary, hasten to see with their own eyes. The younger disciple outruns the older; love haply supplying swifter wings. He stoops, he gazes in, but enters not the open sepulchre, held back probably by a reverential fear. The bolder Peter, coming up, goes in at once, and is rewarded with bright evidence of what had happened.

JFB: Joh 20:6-7 - -- Lying.

Lying.

JFB: Joh 20:6-7 - -- Not loosely, as if hastily thrown down, and indicative of a hurried and disorderly removal.

Not loosely, as if hastily thrown down, and indicative of a hurried and disorderly removal.

JFB: Joh 20:6-7 - -- Folded.

Folded.

JFB: Joh 20:6-7 - -- Showing with what grand tranquillity "the Living One" had walked forth from "the dead" (Luk 24:5). "Doubtless the two attendant angels (Joh 20:12) did...

Showing with what grand tranquillity "the Living One" had walked forth from "the dead" (Luk 24:5). "Doubtless the two attendant angels (Joh 20:12) did this service for the Rising One, the one disposing of the linen clothes, the other of the napkin" [BENGEL].

Clarke: Joh 20:6 - -- Seeth the linen clothes lie - Θεωπει : from θεαομαι, to behold, and ὁραω, to see - to look steadily at any thing, so as to dis...

Seeth the linen clothes lie - Θεωπει : from θεαομαι, to behold, and ὁραω, to see - to look steadily at any thing, so as to discover what it is, and to be satisfied with viewing it.

Defender: Joh 20:6 - -- When Peter "seeth" the clothes, the sense of the Greek word is "looked quizzically.""

When Peter "seeth" the clothes, the sense of the Greek word is "looked quizzically.""

TSK: Joh 20:6 - -- Joh 6:67-69, Joh 18:17, Joh 18:25-27, Joh 21:7, Joh 21:15-17; Mat 16:15, Mat 16:16; Luk 22:31, Luk 22:32

Barnes: Joh 20:1-12 - -- For an account of the resurrection of Christ, see the notes at Matt. 28. Joh 20:9 The scripture - See Luk 24:26, Luk 24:46. The sense or ...

For an account of the resurrection of Christ, see the notes at Matt. 28.

Joh 20:9

The scripture - See Luk 24:26, Luk 24:46. The sense or meaning of the various predictions that foretold his death, as, for example, Psa 2:7, compare Act 13:33; Psa 16:9-10, compare Act 2:25-32; Psa 110:1, compare Act 2:34-35.

For an account of the resurrection of Christ, see the notes at Matt. 28.

Poole: Joh 20:6-7 - -- Ver. 6,7. But Peter, who all along the Gospel appears to have been the boldest spirit, goeth into the cave, and seeth all the linen clothes lying the...

Ver. 6,7. But Peter, who all along the Gospel appears to have been the boldest spirit, goeth into the cave, and seeth all the linen clothes lying there, and the napkin that was about his head lying by itself.

Gill: Joh 20:6 - -- Then cometh Simon Peter following him,.... In a very little time after him: and went into the sepulchre; itself, though not without first stooping ...

Then cometh Simon Peter following him,.... In a very little time after him:

and went into the sepulchre; itself, though not without first stooping down, as John did; see Luk 24:12.

And seeth the linen clothes lie; as John did; and as by the mouth of two or three witnesses everything is confirmed, so was this; both saw the linen in which the body was wrapped, but that was gone; and which was a sign that the body was not stolen away, otherwise the linen would not have been left; and besides, it would have taken up some time, and given a good deal of trouble, to have unwrapped the body, when it is considered how many foldings the Jews used to wind up their corpse in.
