Mark Chapter 16 (WBT)

1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

2 And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they came to the sepulcher at the rising of the sun:

3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll away for us the stone from the door of the sepulcher?

4 (And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away) for it was very great.

5 And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were frightened.

6 And he saith to them, Be not frightened: ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him:

7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said to you.

8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulcher; for they trembled, and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

9 Now when Jesus was risen early, the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons.

10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, believed not.

12 After that, he appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking and going into the country.

13 And they went and told it to the residue: neither believed they them.

14 Afterward he appeared to the eleven, as they sat at table, and upbraided them with their unbelief, and hardness of heart, because they believed not them who had seen him after he was risen.

15 And he said to them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak in new languages;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken to them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in Mark chapter 16?
Women arrive at Jesus's tomb to anoint his body and find the stone rolled away and a young man in white telling them Jesus is risen; the chapter then describes his appearances to Mary Magdalene and the disciples, his commission to preach the gospel, and his ascension to heaven.
What does Jesus command the disciples to do before he ascends?
In Mark 16:15, he tells them, 'Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature,' adding that whoever believes and is baptized will be saved.
How did the women react to finding the tomb empty?
Rather than immediate joy, 'they trembled and were amazed... for they were afraid' and told no one at first (v.8); Jesus's own words about resurrection and belief are echoed in John 11:25-26.
