Saturday in Jerusalem

Luke 23:56; Matthew 27:62-66: The people celebrate the Passover as commanded in Scripture. A guard of Roman soldiers is placed at the entrance of tomb until the third day is passed, lest Jesus' body be stolen.

A dark quiet. Dreams dashed. Confusion. Mourning. An empty cross. A tomb holding the body of the Son of God.

Everything they knew about God and Jesus must have been in question. Did they have the faith to trust that He would return like He said He would?

What would you have been thinking on that Saturday?
