415
Did the women tell the disciples what they had seen?
Luke: They “returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest” ([xxiv, 9]).
Mark: “Neither said they anything to any man; for they were afraid” ([xvi, 8]).
With these words the Gospel of Mark ends, the words that follow being an interpolation. In this appended passage Mary Magdalene is declared to have seen Jesus and informed them of it, but they “believed not.”
