Mark 16:6-8

16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. ¹  He has been raised! ²  He is not here. Look, there is the place where they laid him. 16:7 But go, tell his disciples, even Peter, that he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.” 16:8 Then ³  they went out and ran from the tomb, for terror and bewilderment had seized them. ⁴  And they said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.

[16:6]  ¹ sn See the note on Crucify in 15:13.

[16:6]  ² tn The verb here is passive (ἠγέρθη, hgerqh). This “divine passive” (see ExSyn 437-38) points to the fact that Jesus was raised by God.

[16:8]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[16:8]  ⁴ tn Grk “they began to have trembling and bewilderment.”
