Mark 16:9-11

ἀναστὰς δὲ refers to Jesus, who, however, is not once named in the whole section. This fact with the δὲ favours the hypothesis that the section is a fragment of a larger writing. πρωῒ πρώτῃ σαβ.: whether these words are to be connected with ἀναστὰς, indicating the time of the resurrection, or with ἐφάνη, indicating the time of the first appearance, cannot be decided (vide Meyer). πρῶτον Μαρίᾳ τ. Μ., first to Mary of Magdala, as in John (John 20:14). παρʼ ἧς, etc.: this bit of information, taken from Luke 8:2, is added as if this woman were a stranger never mentioned before in this Gospel, a sure sign of another hand. ἐφάνη, in this verse = appeared to, does not elsewhere occur in this sense.
