Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there was Mary Magdalene and the other Mary,.... The wife of Cleophas, and the mother of James and of Joses:

sitting over against the sepulchre; observing where the body of Christ was put, and how it was laid; for they intended to prepare spices and ointments to anoint it with; and were mourning for the death of Christ: for sitting was a mourning posture, which now they were allowed, the body being taken down from the cross, and interred by leave of the governor; for, for one that died as a malefactor, they might not use the outward signs of mourning: the canon is this w; for such

"they do not mourn, but they grieve; and there is no grieving but in the heart:''

hence these women before stood, John 19:25, but now they sat.

w Misn. Sarhedrin, c. 6. sect. 4.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Matthew 27:61. Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary — The mother of James and Joses, Matthew 27:56. The mother of our Lord had probably, by this time, been taken home to the house of John. See John 19:26-27.

Sitting over against the sepulchre. — These holy women, filled with that love to their Lord which death cannot destroy, cleaved to him in life, and in death were not divided. They came to the grave to see the end, and overwhelmed with sorrow and anguish, sat down to mourn.
