On Saturday, the women were doing. Joseph had already asked for Jesus’ body, wrapped it, and had laid it in his new tomb—but the body hadn’t been prepared with spices. The women had gotten together that day to combine what spices they had and to mix them. They were preparing and doing.
The women weren’t hiding. They may have been fearful, but their love for Jesus was bigger than their fear. Roman guards weren’t standing in their way in their minds. They were consumed with purpose.
And..we know Jesus honored and rewarded that. These women saw him first.
