Throughout the divine dispensations every doctrine and ever important truth is gradually revealed; and here we have a conspicuous instance of the progressive system. An angel first declares the glorious event; the empty sepulchre confirms the women's report. Christ's appearance to Mary Magdalene shewed that he was alive; that to the disciples at Emmaus proved that it was at the least the spirit of Christ; that to the eleven shewed the reality of his body; and the conviction given to Thomas proved it the self-same body that had been crucified. Incredulity itself is satisfied; and the convinced apostle exclaims, in the joy of his heart, "My Lord and my God!" 16,31; 5:23; 9:35-38; Ps 45:6,11; 102:24-28; 118:24-28; Isa 7:14; 9:6Isa 25:9; 40:9-11; Jer 23:5,6; Mal 3:1; Mt 14:33; Lu 24:52Ac 7:59,60; 1Ti 3:16; Re 5:9-14 blessed.8; 4:48; Lu 1:45; 2Co 5:7; Heb 11:1,27,39; 1Pe 1:8 21:25; Lu 1:3,4; Ro 15:4; 1Co 10:11; 2Ti 3:15-17; 2Pe 3:1,21Jo 1:3,4; 5:13 these.28; 1:49; 6:69,70; 9:35-38; Ps 2:7,12; Mt 16:16; 27:54; Lu 1:4Ac 8:37; 9:20; Ro 1:3,4; 1Jo 4:15; 5:1,10,20; 2Jo 1:9; Re 2:18believing.3:15,16,18,36; 5:24,39,40; 6:40; 10:10; Mr 16:16; 1Pe 1:91Jo 2:23-25; 5:10-13through.Lu 24:47; Ac 3:16; 10:43; 13:38,39
