Matthew 28
Devotional
“He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
– Matthew 28:6
I’ve had the privilege now on 3 separate occasions to administer communion just steps away from the empty tomb at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem. The Garden Tomb or Gordon’s Calvary is a traditional Protestant, evangelical site, believed to be the (very temporary) resting place of Jesus before His resurrection. I’ve stood in the tomb several times, it is quite empty, and upon the inside of the door hangs a wooden plaque with the words from Matthew 28:6 inscribed … “He is not here; for He is risen.”
