Contextual Overview

1 And on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulchre, bringing the spices, which they had prepared and certain others with them. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre, And entering, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus. 3 And while they were perplexed concerning it, 4 behold two men stood by them in shining garments. 5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their face to the earth, they said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but is risen. Remember how he spake to you being yet in Galilee, 7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and rise again the third day. 8 And they remembered his words, 9 And returning from the sepulchre, told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. 10 It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 28:1-11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Luke 24:3. And found not the body of the Lord — His holy soul was in Paradise, Luke 23:43; and the evangelist mentions the body particularly, to show that this only was subject to death. It is, I think, evident enough, from these and other words of Luke, that the doctrine of the materiality of the soul, made no part of his creed.
