And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout. Mark reports their perplexity, before they reached the tomb, as to who should roll them away the stone that covered the body of their dear Lord; while our Evangelist here, who simply tells us that they found the stone rolled away, records their next and still greater perplexity at finding the sepulchre empty. But as the one vanished as soon as they arrived at the spot, so the other was soon dissipated by the shining ones that appeared to them.
Behold, two men stood by them in shining garments, х astraptousais (G797)] - garments of dazzling brightness. See the note at Mark 16:5.
