Marcos 16:4

4 Y como miraron, ven la piedra revuelta; que era muy grande.

Marcos 16:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 16:4

And when they looked
Towards the sepulchre, as they came near it:

they saw that the stone was rolled away;
they perceived it lay at some distance from the door of the sepulchre, which doubtless was very grateful, and matter of rejoicing to them:

for it was very great;
these words are to be read, in connection with the preceding verse; for they are not a reason, why when they looked towards the sepulchre, they saw the stone rolled, because it was a very large one, and so easily to be seen at a distance; but a reason why they were so thoughtful and concerned, who should roll it away for them, it being so big, that they could not think that they were able to do it themselves.

Marcos 16:4 In-Context

2 Y muy de mañana, el primer día de la semana, vienen al sepulcro, ya salido el sol.

3 Y decían entre sí: ¿Quién nos revolverá la piedra de la puerta del sepulcro?

4 Y como miraron, ven la piedra revuelta; que era muy grande.

5 Y entradas en el sepulcro, vieron un mancebo sentado al lado derecho, cubierto de una larga ropa blanca; y se espantaron.

6 Más él les dice: No os asustéis: buscáis á Jesús Nazareno, el que fué crucificado; resucitado há, no está aquí; he aquí el lugar en donde le pusieron.
