Berean Study Bible The ResurrectionThe Jewish Sabbath ended at sundown on Saturday, following the day of rest commanded in Exodus 20:8–11. Jesus had lain in the tomb through the Sabbath, fulfilling His promise to rise on the third day (Matthew 16:21). Mrk 16:1 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene,… at dawn on the first day of the week, The resurrection occurred on Sunday morning, the first day of a new week. Jesus rose as the firstfruits of the resurrection, guaranteeing the future resurrection of all who belong to Him (1 Corinthians 15:20–23). His victory also gives lasting significance to the Lord’s Day in Christian worship (Acts 20:7; Revelation 1:10). Mrk 16:2 Very early on the first day of the week,… Mary Magdalene and the other Mary Mary Magdalene had remained near Jesus through His death and burial. The other Mary was likely the mother of James and Joseph (Matthew 27:56, 61). Their faithful presence placed women among the first witnesses of the empty tomb and the risen Christ. Mat 27:61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there… went to see the tomb. Their visit arose from love, grief, and devotion to Jesus. The tomb had been sealed and guarded at the request of the chief priests and Pharisees (Matthew 27:62–66), making the empty tomb an unmistakable testimony that death could not hold Him. Luk 24:2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, Suddenly there was a great earthquake, God’s power shook the earth as heaven publicly intervened at the tomb. Earthquakes accompanied significant manifestations of God’s presence in Scripture, including Sinai (Exodus 19:18). The resurrection itself had already occurred before the women arrived; the earthquake and opened tomb revealed the victory Christ had accomplished over death. Mat 27:51 At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two… for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, The angel’s descent showed that the events at the tomb originated in God’s purpose, not human invention. Angels had announced Jesus’ birth and ministered to Him after His temptation; now an angel announced the triumph of His resurrection. Heaven bore witness that the crucified Jesus had been vindicated by the Father. Rev 10:1 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven,… rolled away the stone, The stone was not removed to release Jesus, who had already risen in a glorified body, but to reveal the empty tomb to the women and later to the disciples. The seal and guard appointed by the authorities could not prevent the fulfillment of Jesus’ repeated promise that He would rise on the third day (Matthew 16:21; 17:23). Mrk 16:4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone… and sat on it. The angel’s posture displayed calm authority over the barrier intended to secure death’s apparent victory. The stone meant to contain Jesus now became the place from which heaven’s messenger proclaimed that the grave was empty. Christ’s resurrection established His victory over sin, death, and the power of the grave. Psa 110:1 A Psalm of David. The LORD said to my Lord:… His appearance was like lightning, The angel bore the unmistakable radiance of heaven, displaying the power and majesty of the God who sent him. Lightning accompanied God’s revelation at Sinai (Exodus 19:16) and reflects the fearful splendor of His presence. The guards’ terror in the following verse shows that the resurrection was announced not as a private religious idea but as a decisive act of God breaking into history. Daniel also saw a heavenly messenger whose face was like lightning (Daniel 10:6). Dan 10:6 His body was like beryl, his face like the brilliance… and his clothes were white as snow. The angel’s spotless garments revealed holiness, purity, and heavenly glory. White clothing repeatedly marks those who stand in God’s presence, including Jesus at the transfiguration (Matthew 17:2) and the redeemed in Revelation (Revelation 3:5). At the empty tomb, such brightness testified that death had been defeated by the righteous and holy power of God. Dan 7:9 As I continued to watch, thrones were set in place,… The guards trembled in fear of him The Roman soldiers assigned to secure the tomb were trained to remain steadfast under threat, yet the angel of the Lord overwhelmed them with holy terror. His appearance, like lightning and clothed in dazzling white, revealed the authority of heaven. Human strength and military power could not stand before God’s messenger, just as the shepherds feared when the glory of the Lord shone around them at Jesus’ birth (Luke 2:9). Dan 10:7-9 I, Daniel, saw the vision; the men with me did not see it… and became like dead men. The guards were rendered helpless, apparently collapsing or becoming paralyzed with fear. Their condition forms a striking contrast with Jesus, who had risen alive from the tomb and conquered death. The guards could not prevent or conceal God’s work; the sealed stone, official watch, and authority of Rome were powerless before the resurrection of Christ. Rev 1:17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man.… But the angel said to the women, The angel addressed Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, who had come to the tomb in faithful devotion to Jesus. Heaven entrusted the first announcement of the resurrection to women, though their testimony was often discounted in the surrounding culture. Their role confirms both the historical character of the account and God’s gracious regard for those who seek Christ. Luk 24:4-5 While they were puzzling over this, two men… “Do not be afraid, The angel calmed the women after the earthquake, the opened tomb, and the terrifying display of divine power that had overwhelmed the guards. The resurrection replaces fear of death with confidence in the living Christ. Luk 1:30 So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary,… for I know that you are looking for Jesus, The women had not come expecting a resurrection; they came seeking the body of the Lord they loved. Their sorrowful search became the occasion for God’s greatest announcement: Jesus had fulfilled His promise to rise on the third day. Mrk 16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed.… who was crucified. The risen Jesus was the same Jesus who truly suffered and died under Roman execution. His crucifixion fulfilled the Scriptures concerning the suffering Messiah and accomplished the sacrifice for sin. The empty tomb proclaimed that death had not overcome Him. Jhn 19:18 There they crucified Him, and with Him two others… He is not here; Jesus’ body had truly been placed in Joseph of Arimathea’s rock-hewn tomb, but it was no longer there. The empty tomb testified that death had not held Him. Luk 24:3 but when they entered, they did not find the body… He has risen, Jesus rose bodily from the dead, conquering sin, death, and the grave. His resurrection fulfilled Psalm 16:10 and confirmed the promise of Isaiah 53:10–12. Luk 24:34 The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon… just as He said! Jesus had repeatedly foretold His death and resurrection (Matt. 16:21; 20:19). The fulfillment of His words established His authority as the Messiah and gave His disciples a sure foundation for faith. Mat 16:21 From that time on Jesus began to show His disciples… Come, see the place where He lay. The angel invited the women to examine the tomb themselves. The place of burial, now empty, became public evidence that the crucified Jesus had risen. Mrk 16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed.… Then go quickly and tell His disciples, The women were entrusted to carry urgent news to disciples weakened by fear and grief. Their role as the first heralds of the resurrection stands in striking contrast to the limited social standing often given to women’s testimony, showing that God chose faithful witnesses rather than human status. The message also calls the disciples back from hiding to renewed fellowship and service. Mrk 16:7 But go, tell His disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead… ‘He has risen from the dead Jesus’ bodily resurrection vindicates His claims, fulfills His repeated predictions, and confirms His victory over sin and death. Psalm 16:10 anticipated that God’s Holy One would not undergo decay, and Isaiah 53 joins the Servant’s death with His continued life and triumph. The resurrection declares Jesus to be the Son of God in power and stands at the center of the apostolic gospel. Mrk 16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed.… and is going ahead of you into Galilee. Jesus had promised before His arrest that, after He was raised, He would go ahead of His disciples into Galilee. The risen Shepherd again leads His scattered flock. Galilee was the region where many of them had first been called and where Jesus’ public ministry had displayed the kingdom of God. There, on a mountain in Galilee, He would commission them to make disciples of all nations. Mat 26:32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you… There you will see Him.’ The disciples would not receive merely a report of resurrection but would encounter the living Lord Himself. Their witness rested upon seeing the risen Christ, hearing His teaching, and receiving His commission. The promised meeting would replace fear with assurance and prepare them for their calling. Jhn 21:1 Later, by the Sea of Tiberias, Jesus revealed Himself… See, I have told you.” The angel’s declaration carries the certainty of God’s own message. What God had announced through Jesus and His messengers had come to pass, and the disciples could rely on the promise that they would see Him. Jhn 14:29 And now I have told you before it happens,… So they hurried away from the tomb Mary Magdalene and the other Mary departed in obedience to the angel’s command. Joseph of Arimathea’s newly cut tomb, near the place of crucifixion outside Jerusalem, had become the first public witness to Jesus’ bodily resurrection. The women’s haste reflected the weight of the news and the certainty that death had not held the One who foretold His resurrection on the third day. Mrk 16:8 So the women left the tomb and ran away,… in fear and great joy, Awe before God’s mighty work mingled with overflowing joy. The empty tomb confirmed Jesus’ promises, vindicated His identity, and announced the defeat of sin and death. Such reverent fear often accompanies encounters with God’s holiness and power, while joy arises from His saving presence and faithfulness. Psa 2:11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. and ran to tell His disciples. The women became the first witnesses commissioned to announce the resurrection to Jesus’ followers. The disciples, grieving and fearful after the crucifixion, needed the assurance that their Lord was alive and would meet them in Galilee. Their message began the public proclamation of the risen Christ that would soon reach Jerusalem and the nations. Jhn 20:18 Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples,… Suddenly Jesus met them Jesus Himself appeared to the women as they hurried from the tomb to tell the disciples what the angel had announced. His unexpected presence confirmed that He had truly risen bodily, fulfilling His repeated promise that He would rise on the third day (Matthew 16:21). The suffering Servant who gave His life as an offering for sin now lived and would “see His offspring” and “prolong His days” (Isaiah 53:10–12). Jhn 20:14-16 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus… and said, “Greetings!” The risen Lord met their fear and urgency with a familiar greeting of joy and peace. The One whose birth was announced with peace from heaven now stood victorious over sin and death, restoring His followers through His living presence. Jhn 20:19 It was the first day of the week, and that very evening,… They came to Him, The women responded without hesitation, drawing near in faith and devotion. Though women were often discounted as public witnesses in that culture, God entrusted them with the first appearances and the first resurrection message, showing that His testimony does not depend on human status. Mat 15:22-25 And a Canaanite woman from that region came… grasped His feet, Their touch demonstrated that Jesus was not a vision, spirit, or symbolic appearance. He possessed a real, resurrected body, as He later affirmed to the disciples when He invited them to see and touch Him (Luke 24:39). 2Ki 4:27 When she reached the man of God at the mountain,… and worshiped Him. Their response rightly acknowledged Jesus as the risen Lord. The worship due to God alone was received by the Son, who had conquered death and would be confessed by every knee and every tongue as Lord (Philippians 2:10–11). Jhn 9:38 “Lord, I believe,” he said. And he worshiped Jesus. “Do not be afraid,” said Jesus. The risen Lord met the women as they hurried from the tomb with both fear and great joy. His presence replaced terror with assurance, confirming the angel’s earlier announcement that He had risen. Jesus does not dismiss their fear from a distance; He stands before them alive, victorious over death. Jhn 6:20 But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.” “Go and tell My brothers to go to Galilee. The disciples had scattered, and Peter had denied Him, yet Jesus called them His brothers. His resurrection secured restoration for those who had failed Him. Galilee was the place where many had first heard His call and where He had promised to meet them after He was raised (Matthew 26:32). Jhn 20:17 “Do not cling to Me,” Jesus said, “for I have not yet…”… There they will see Me.” Jesus would appear bodily to His disciples in Galilee, providing undeniable testimony that He had truly risen. There He would commission them to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:16–20). The risen Christ turned frightened followers into witnesses whose message rested on what they had seen and heard. Jhn 21:1 Later, by the Sea of Tiberias, Jesus revealed Himself…
The Report of the GuardsThis phrase refers to the women who had visited Jesus’ tomb early on the first day of the week. They were on their way to inform the disciples of the resurrection, as instructed by the angel. This highlights the role of women as the first witnesses to the resurrection, which is significant given the cultural context where women’s testimonies were often undervalued. This moment underscores the transformative nature of the Gospel, where societal norms are upended. Luk 24:9-10 And when they returned from the tomb, they reported… some of the guards went into the city The guards mentioned here were Roman soldiers assigned to watch over Jesus’ tomb to prevent His body from being stolen, as the chief priests and Pharisees had feared. Their going into the city, likely Jerusalem, indicates a sense of urgency and the gravity of the situation, as they were responsible for the security of the tomb. The city, being the center of Jewish religious life, is significant as the place where the news of the resurrection would first spread. Mat 27:53 After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out… and reported to the chief priests all that had happened. The chief priests, who had sought Jesus’ death and secured the guard, received testimony from those responsible for the tomb’s security. Their knowledge of the events left them facing evidence they could not honestly dismiss. Rather than responding in repentance and faith, they conspired to conceal the truth, setting in motion the false account that the disciples had stolen the body. Mat 27:62-66 The next day, the one after Preparation Day,… And after the chief priests had met with the elders and formed a plan, The chief priests and elders represented the leading authorities of the Sanhedrin, Israel’s ruling council. Their consultation continued the united resistance to Jesus that had marked His trial and crucifixion. Rather than receiving the guards’ report as evidence that God had raised His Son, they conspired to conceal it. Their counsel against the risen Messiah reflects Psalm 2:2, in which earthly rulers gather against the Lord and His Anointed. Mrk 15:1 Early in the morning, the chief priests and elders… they gave the soldiers a large sum of money The guards had witnessed the angel’s descent, the opened tomb, and the disappearance of Jesus’ body. The large bribe revealed the leaders’ fear that the truth would spread among the people. Money had also been used to secure Judas’s betrayal, and it was now used to purchase false testimony concerning the resurrection. Human corruption could not overturn God’s victory over death, but it sought to obscure the witness of those who had seen the empty tomb. Mat 26:15 “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over”… and instructed them: The chief priests and elders had agreed to purchase the guards’ cooperation after hearing their report of the angel, the earthquake, and the empty tomb. Rather than receiving the evidence of God’s power, they sought to protect their authority and suppress the witness to Jesus’ resurrection. Mat 27:20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds… “You are to say, The religious leaders supplied the guards with a fabricated account and offered them money to repeat it. Their plan turned men who had witnessed the events at the tomb into agents of a public lie. Exo 23:1 You shall not spread a false report. Do not join… ‘His disciples came by night The accusation portrayed the disciples as secretive thieves, though they had fled in fear at Jesus’ arrest and had not expected His resurrection. A night operation against a guarded, sealed tomb would have required boldness and coordination that the disciples had not displayed. Mat 27:64 So give the order that the tomb be secured… and stole Him away Removing Jesus’ body would have required moving the stone and escaping the guard. The claim also failed to explain the appearances of the risen Christ and the transformed courage of His followers. Jesus had foretold His resurrection, fulfilling the Scriptures that death would not hold God’s Holy One. Jhn 20:2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple… while we were asleep.’ Sleeping guards could not know who had taken the body, making their testimony self-contradictory. Such negligence could bring severe Roman punishment, which explains the leaders’ promise to intervene with the governor. The false report spread widely, yet it could not overturn the reality that Jesus had risen from the dead. 1Sa 26:12 So David took the spear and water jug by Saul’s head,… If this report reaches the governor, The chief priests anticipated that Pilate might hear that the soldiers had failed to prevent the tomb from being opened. A report of an empty tomb and angelic appearance would expose the inadequacy of the false account they had purchased and could intensify public attention to Jesus’ resurrection. Act 23:33-35 When the horsemen arrived in Caesarea, they delivered… we will satisfy him The religious leaders assured the guards that they could persuade Pilate and calm any anger he might direct toward them. Having already pressured Pilate to authorize the guard and crucify Jesus, they believed they possessed sufficient political influence to protect the soldiers and preserve their own version of events. Pro 21:14 A gift in secret soothes anger, and a covert bribe…… and keep you out of trouble.” Roman soldiers could face severe punishment for neglecting an assigned duty. The promise of protection encouraged them to accept the bribe and spread the claim that Jesus’ disciples stole His body. Human authority and money were used to conceal the resurrection, yet the risen Christ would soon send His witnesses to proclaim openly what the guards and leaders sought to suppress. Rom 13:3-4 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad.… So the guards took the money The soldiers accepted the bribe offered by the chief priests and elders, choosing personal security and financial gain over the truth they had witnessed. As Roman guards, they faced severe punishment if charged with failing in their duty, yet the leaders promised to protect them before Pilate (Matthew 28:14). Money had already been used in the betrayal of Jesus through Judas (Matthew 26:14–16); now it was used in an effort to conceal His resurrection. Pro 17:23 A wicked man takes a covert bribe to subvert the course… and did as they were instructed. The guards repeated the fabricated claim that the disciples had stolen Jesus’ body while they slept. Their testimony was self-contradictory, since men asleep could not know who had taken the body. The empty tomb could not be explained by theft, for the tomb had been sealed and guarded, and the disciples were transformed from fearful followers into bold witnesses of the risen Christ. Exo 39:42-43 The Israelites had done all the work just as the LORD… And this account has been circulated among the Jews The report was spread among the Jewish people through the influence of the chief priests and elders, who had rejected the evidence of Jesus’ resurrection. Matthew does not condemn the Jewish people as a whole; many Jews believed in Christ from the beginning. Yet the official opposition to Jesus continued, and the apostles later faced resistance as they proclaimed that God had raised Him from the dead. Act 6:11-14 Then they prompted some men to say, “We heard Stephen speak… to this very day. The false report remained known at the time Matthew wrote his Gospel. Its persistence shows that unbelief is not merely a matter of lacking evidence, but of resisting God’s truth. The resurrection stands as God’s public vindication of His Son, and no human scheme could overturn the reality that Jesus rose bodily from the grave. Deu 34:6 And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab…
The Great CommissionJudas Iscariot’s betrayal and death had reduced the Twelve to eleven, leaving a visible reminder of sin’s devastation among those closest to Jesus. Yet the risen Lord continued to gather and prepare those He had chosen as His witnesses. Mrk 16:14 Later, as they were eating, Jesus appeared… went to Galilee, Galilee was the setting of much of Jesus’ public ministry and the place where He had first called several of these men. Their return fulfilled His instruction given before and after His resurrection, drawing them back to the region where they had learned to follow Him. Mat 26:32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you… to the mountain Mountains often marked moments of divine revelation and covenantal instruction in Scripture. The elevated setting prepared the disciples to receive Christ’s final earthly commission, linking His authority with God’s earlier dealings with Moses and Israel. Mrk 3:13 Then Jesus went up on the mountain and called… Jesus had designated. The meeting occurred according to the risen Savior’s deliberate command, not by chance or human planning. Jesus remained the Shepherd of His disciples, directing them after His resurrection and preparing them to carry His gospel to the nations. Mat 17:1 After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John… When they saw Him, This phrase refers to the disciples’ encounter with the resurrected Jesus on a mountain in Galilee. The setting is significant as Galilee was the region where Jesus began His ministry and performed many miracles. This meeting fulfills Jesus’ promise to appear to His disciples after His resurrection (Matthew 26:32). The physical sighting of Jesus confirms the reality of His bodily resurrection, a cornerstone of Christian faith, affirming His victory over death and His divine nature. Jhn 20:20 After He had said this, He showed them His hands… they worshiped Him, The act of worship indicates recognition of Jesus’ divine status. In Jewish culture, worship was reserved for God alone, so the disciples’ worship of Jesus underscores their acknowledgment of His deity. This moment reflects the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah’s divine nature (Isaiah 9:6) and aligns with New Testament affirmations of Jesus’ divinity (John 1:1, Colossians 2:9). Worship here is both a physical act and a spiritual acknowledgment of Jesus as Lord and Savior. Luk 24:52 And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem… but some doubted. Some among the gathered disciples hesitated as they confronted the overwhelming reality of the resurrection. Their uncertainty did not overturn the clear testimony of Jesus’ visible presence, but revealed the difficulty of grasping such a miraculous event. Jesus did not withdraw from them because of their weakness; instead, He entrusted them with the Great Commission. Faith would be strengthened through His presence, His Word, and the witness of the resurrection. Mrk 16:14 Later, as they were eating, Jesus appeared… Then Jesus came to them and said, The risen Lord personally approached the disciples on the mountain in Galilee where He had appointed them to gather. His presence confirmed that He had truly risen bodily, fulfilling His repeated promises that He would rise and meet them in Galilee. Jesus did not leave His followers to uncertainty; He revealed Himself, received their worship, and prepared them for their lifelong mission. Luk 24:36 While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood… “All authority in heaven and on earth Jesus possesses absolute dominion over every power, ruler, nation, angelic being, and created realm. Daniel foresaw the Son of Man receiving everlasting dominion from the Ancient of Days, and the resurrection openly vindicated Jesus as that promised King. Nothing in heaven or on earth lies outside His rule. The mission given to the disciples rests not on their strength, influence, or numbers, but on the reign of the crucified and risen Christ. Jhn 17:2 For You granted Him authority over all people,… has been given to Me. The Father exalted the Son following His obedient death and victorious resurrection. As the incarnate Messiah and mediator, Jesus now exercises universal authority as the head of His church and Judge of all humanity. His authority guarantees the success of the commission that follows and assures His people that their labor is carried out under the rule of the One who will reign forever. Jhn 3:35 The Father loves the Son and has placed all things… Therefore go The risen Jesus sends His disciples under the authority He has received from the Father (Matthew 28:18). Their obedience recalls Abraham’s departure at God’s command, trusting God’s direction and purpose (Genesis 12:1). Jhn 20:21 Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me,”… and make disciples Jesus commands more than gathering converts; He calls for believers who learn His teaching, follow His example, and obey His words. Paul’s instruction to Timothy reflects this continuing work of entrusting truth to faithful people who will teach others also (2 Timothy 2:2). Act 14:21 They preached the gospel to that city and made many… of all nations, God’s saving purpose extends to every people group, fulfilling His promise that all nations would be blessed through Abraham’s offspring (Genesis 22:18). The gospel’s advance to Cornelius and other Gentiles demonstrated that no ethnic or cultural boundary could limit Christ’s kingdom (Acts 10:34–35). Luk 24:47 and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins… baptizing them Baptism publicly identifies a believer with Jesus Christ and His people. It portrays union with His death, burial, and resurrection and marks entry into the visible fellowship of the church (Romans 6:3–4; Acts 2:41). Act 2:38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you,… in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Christian baptism rests upon the one name of the triune God. The Father saves through the Son, and the Holy Spirit gives new life and seals believers for God’s possession. Jesus places Himself and the Spirit alongside the Father, revealing their full unity in the work of redemption. 2Co 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God… and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. Jesus calls His disciples to form obedient followers, not merely informed listeners. His instruction encompasses the whole of His teaching, including the righteousness of the Sermon on the Mount, the command to love God and neighbor, humility, forgiveness, prayer, holiness, and faith in Him. Like Israel, who was commanded to teach God’s words diligently to each generation (Deuteronomy 6:6–7), the church is charged to preserve and impart the Lord’s revealed will. Obedience flows from genuine discipleship and demonstrates love for Christ (John 14:15). Jhn 14:15 If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. And surely I am with you always, The risen Lord does not send His servants into the world without His sustaining presence. His promise recalls God’s assurance to Joshua as Israel entered the land: “The Lord your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9). Jesus is Immanuel, “God with us” (Matthew 1:23), and His abiding presence confirms His divine authority and faithfulness. Through the Holy Spirit, He strengthens, guides, comforts, and preserves His people as they carry out His mission. Jos 1:5 No one shall stand against you all the days of your life.… even to the end of the age.” Jesus remains with His church throughout the present age until His visible return and the completion of God’s redemptive purposes. The mission continues until the Son of Man comes in glory to establish fully the everlasting kingdom foretold in Daniel 7:13–14. The promise gives believers confidence amid opposition and hardship: Christ’s authority will not fail, His gospel will accomplish His purpose, and His people will finally dwell with Him in the new creation (Revelation 21:1–4). Mat 13:39-40 and the enemy who sows them is the devil.… This is a draft of the Berean Study Bible. Please send all comments and recommendations to bereanstudybible@aol.com. Bible Hub |
