Gospel John 20.19-31 www.loyolapress.com
Thomas believes because he sees Jesus.
Gospel Reflection
Today we begin the Easter Season, our 50-day meditation on the
mystery of Christ's Resurrection. Our Gospel today tells us about
the disciples' discovery of the empty tomb. It concludes by telling
us that they did not yet understand that Jesus had risen from the
dead. Thus, the details provided are not necessarily meant to offer
proof of the Resurrection. The details invite us to reflect upon a
most amazing gift, that is faith in Jesus and his Resurrection. Each
of the four Gospels tells us that Jesus' empty tomb was first
discovered by women. This is notable because in first-century
Jewish society women could not serve as legal witnesses. In the
case of John's Gospel, the only woman attending the tomb is Mary
of Magdala. Unlike the Synoptic accounts, John's Gospel does not
describe an appearance of angels at the tomb. Instead, Mary is
simply said to have observed that the stone that had sealed the
tomb had been moved, and she runs to alert Simon Peter and the
beloved disciple. Her statement to them is telling. She assumes that
Jesus' body has been removed, perhaps stolen. She does not
consider that Jesus has been raised from the dead. Simon Peter and
the beloved disciple race to the tomb, presumably to verify Mary's
report. The beloved disciple arrives first but does not enter the
tomb until after Simon Peter. This detail paints a vivid picture, as
does the detail provided about the burial cloths. Some scholars
believe that the presence of the burial cloths in the tomb offers
evidence to the listener that Jesus' body had not been stolen (it is
understood that grave robbers would have taken the burial cloths
together with the body). The Gospel passage concludes, however,
that even having seen the empty tomb and the burial cloths, the
disciples do not yet understand about the Resurrection. In the
passage that follows, Mary of Magdala meets Jesus but mistakes
him for the gardener. In the weeks ahead, the Gospel readings from
our liturgy will show us how the disciples came to believe in Jesus'
Resurrection through his appearances to them. Our Easter faith is
based on their witness to both the empty tomb and their continuing
relationship with Jesus—in his appearances and in his gift of the
Holy Spirit.
