Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.
Ver. 8. And he saw and believed] i.e. He believed his own eyes, that the Lord's body was not in the sepulchre; but, as Mary Magdalene had told them, so they misbelieved, that it was taken away to some other place, further from Calvary, for honour's 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."
