Matthew 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week… Philip Henry used to call the Lord's Day the queen of days, the pearl of the week, and observed it accordingly. His common salutation of his family or friends on the Lord's Day in the morning, was that of the primitive Christians — "The Lord is risen, He is risen indeed; " making it his chief business on that day to celebrate the memory of Christ's resurrection; and he would say sometimes," Every Lord's Day is a true Christian's Easter Day." Parallel Verses KJV: In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. |
