After Jesus Died

About this ebook
If anyone was born again after Jesus died, and before Pentecost, his disciples were, but they were not. If anyone understood Jesus' purpose and doctrine after he died, and before Pentecost, his disciples did, but they did not. Those two startling observations are confirmed by everything Jesus' followers said and did from the day Jesus died until the day of Pentecost, when they received the Spirit and were born of God.
Here is the biblical evidence, everything the Bible tells us about that time in the disciples' lives.

After Jesus Died in Matthew
Matthew 27
50. Then Jesus, again crying out with a loud voice, let go the spirit.
51. And, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom, and the earth shook, and the rocks were split apart,
52. and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of saints who had fallen asleep were raised,
53. and after his resurrection, they came out of the tombs and entered into the holy city, and they were seen by many.
54. Now, the captain and those who were guarding Jesus with him, seeing the earthquake and the other things that happened, were very frightened and said, This really was a god’s son!
55. And there were many women there, looking on from a distance, who followed Jesus from Galilee and ministered to him,
56. among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
Question: Why were these women, righteous and good as they were, just looking on from a distance,
and not rejoicing that the debt for the whole world’s sin was being paid and that man’s redemption from bondage to his fallen, corrupt nature was at hand?
Answer: They were not aware that the debt for man’s sin was being paid or that man even needed to be redeemed from a fallen nature.
¶57. Now, when evening was come, a rich man named Joseph from Arimathea came, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.
58a. This man approached Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body.
Note: Joseph was probably ashamed of himself for fearing to confess his faith in Jesus while Jesus was alive (Jn. 19:38) and was now trying to make up for it by honoring Jesus publicly.
58b. Pilate then commanded that the body be given him.
59. And when he had taken the body, Joseph wrapped it up in a clean linen cloth
60. and laid it in his new sepulcher that he had hewn in a rock, and after rolling a great stone to the entrance of the sepulcher, he went away.
Note: Joseph would have done the same for anyone he loved. This manner of burial was not unusual among well-to-do Jews of the time; it does not suggest that Joseph was born again, or even that he possessed exceptional faith or knowledge of God. On the contrary, Joseph did not believe that Jesus would rise from the dead; like everyone else who loved Jesus, Joseph thought Jesus was dead and gone. Otherwise, he would not have shrouded Jesus’ body in burial linen.
61. And Mary the Magdalene and the other Mary were there, and they sat down opposite the tomb.
Note: Nothing in this verse indicates that these women were born again and believed that Jesus would rise from the dead. All that we are told here is that they attended Jesus’ burial, which they would have done for anyone they loved.
¶62. The next day, that is, after the Preparation, the high priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate,
63. saying, "Sir, we remember that while he was alive, that deceiver said, ‘After three days, I will arise.’
Note: It is remarkable that these enemies of Jesus remembered and understood what Jesus meant when he said he would rise from the dead in three days, seeing that his own disciples did not.
64. Therefore, command that the sepulcher be guarded until the third day, lest his disciples come at night and steal him away, and then tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and so, the last delusion be worse than the first."
65. Pilate said to them, " Y ou have a guard. Go make it as secure as y ou can."
66. Then they went with a guard and made the sepulcher secure, sealing the stone.
Note: Israel’s leaders did not believe that Jesus would rise from the dead. They put a guard at the tomb, not to keep Jesus in, but to keep Jesus’ disciples out, in case they planned to steal his dead body and then claim that he had
