John20:8

Verſe 8. And he ſaw and believed.] i.e. He believed his own eyes, that the Lords body was not in the ſepulchre; but, as Mary Magdalen had told them, ſo they miſ-believed, that it was taken away to ſome other place, further from Calvary, for honours ſake, that he might not lie buried with the wicked. Hence it is that in the next verſe it is added, that as yet they knew not the Scripture.
