Marc 16:8 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 16:8

And they went out quickly
Out of the sepulchre, into which they had been, to see where Christ lay, as invited by the angel, ( Mark 16:6 ) . The word "quickly", is not read in the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Persic, and Ethiopic versions: "which when they heard"; that is, when they heard the angel's and instructions, immediately they went out:

and fled from the sepulchre;
as surprised and affrighted:

for they trembled and were amazed;
at what they saw and heard, and yet this dread and fear were mixed with joy at the news of Christ's resurrection, as Matthew relates, ( Matthew 28:8 ) .

Neither said they any thing to any man;
they met with by the way, till they came to the disciples; to whom they told all, otherwise they would not have acted according to the angel's orders

for they were afraid;
not only affrighted with what they had seen and heard, but the were afraid to tell any but the disciples of these things, for fear of the Jews; lest they should be thought to have stolen the body of Christ, and so be taken up on that account, and punished.

Marc 16:8 In-Context

6 Mais il leur dit: Ne vous effrayez point; vous cherchez Jésus de Nazareth qui a été crucifié; il est ressuscité, il n'est point ici; voici le lieu où on l'avait mis.
7 Mais allez, dites à ses disciples et à Pierre qu'il vous devance en Galilée; vous le verrez là, comme il vous l'a dit.
8 Elles sortirent aussitôt et elles s'enfuirent du sépulcre; car elles étaient saisies de crainte et d'étonnement. Et elles ne dirent rien à personne, car elles étaient effrayées.
9 Or, Jésus étant ressuscité le matin, le premier jour de la semaine, apparut premièrement à Marie de Magdala, de laquelle il avait chassé sept démons.
10 Et elle s'en alla, et l'annonça à ceux qui avaient été avec lui, et qui étaient dans le deuil et dans les larmes.
