HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Leaders of the Whiffenpoofs, Yale University's world-famous glee club, say their sound isn't changing, but they are ending their more than century-old tradition of being a male only a cappella ensemble.
The Whiffs, as they are known, and Yale's senior women's a cappella group, Whim 'n Rhythm, issued a joint announcement Feb. 1 that tryouts for both groups will now be open to all rising seniors, including transgender students.
The move, they say is designed to give more people access, to what can be life-changing travel opportunities and music industry contacts that come with being a member of the nation's oldest collegiate a cappella group.
"Both Whim 'n Rhythm and the Whiffenpoofs acknowledge the transgender, gender-nonbinary and gender-nonconforming members in our community, and understand that they feel unseen within the current paradigm of 'all-male' versus `all-female' senior a cappella," the groups wrote.
But, the ensembles say they aren't changing their sound. The 14-member Whiffenpoofs, a group formed in 1909, will continue to comprise tenor, baritone and bass voices, and the Whims will continue to be for sopranos and altos.
Auditions, which are conducted by members of the current ensembles, were held recently in New York and will continue through the upcoming week, said Kenyon Duncan, the Whiffenpoofs' music director.
The change has been under consideration for several years and was made after a year of surveying alumni and the student body at the Ivy League college in New Haven, Connecticut, Duncan said.
"There is a lot of emotion there," said Rich Johnson, who sang with the Whiffenpoofs in 1981 and is president of the alumni association. "There are some who think it's long overdue. Others think it should never happen because, `My experience was perfect and I don't want you to disrupt my memory of the Whiffenpoofs by making it co-ed.' And then, there is every opinion in between."
Linus Travers, who sang with the Whiffs in 1958, said the group has a tradition of changing with the times, noting there were once no black or Jewish members. But he also noted that single-sex groups have a certain sound, and some worry that might disappear with the current changes.
"It would be the same as if the string quartets disappeared," he said. "If there are no more string quartets or the federal government requires saxophones to join them, it's a different sound. Not necessarily better or worse, but different."
Eric Rice, head of the Department of Music and a music historian at the University of Connecticut, said the decision by the Whiffs and the Whims is part of a trend among a capella groups.
The Whiffenpoofs decision, he said, is important because of the group's prestige as the oldest such collegiate group in the nation. The ensemble tours the world and has access to famous and powerful Yale alumni.
They have literally been the music of the old boys' club, he said, holding regular concerts for over 100 years at Mory's Temple Bar, an eatery frequented by a who's who of the Yale elite.
"The question of access also has to do with contacts in the music world and who was in it in the past — being part of the same ensemble as Cole Porter, for example," he said. "That type of access is incredibly important."
That's one reason Yale's ensembles also are changing the way the two groups operate, acknowledging a "gap in opportunity" between the better-know Whiffenpoofs and the lesser-known Whim 'n Rhythm.
The groups will now have a joint website, with shared booking information and a more closely integrated business team, they said. The idea is to better share the Whiffenpoofs' financial and prestige advantage, Duncan said.
"Since the announcement, we've already been contacted by venues that want to hire both groups, and we haven't even created our joint website yet," said Gabriella Borter, the business manager for Whim 'n Rhythm.

However, for the man who studies to gain insight, books and studies are merely rungs of the ladder on which he climbs to the summit of knowledge. As soon as a rung has raised him up one step, he leaves it behind. On the other hand, the many who study in order to fill their memory do not use the rungs of the ladder for climbing, but take them off and load themselves with them to take away, rejoicing at the increasing weight of the burden. They remain below forever, because they bear what should have bourne them.

Restore Hope Arkansas is trying to reduce local recidivism rates, or the rate at which offenders return to jail, local officials learned on Thursday.
Paul Chapman, executive director for Restore Hope Arkansas Inc., provided the Sebastian County Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee an update about the nonprofit enterprise during the committee's meeting Thursday. Restore Hope has multiple goals, including reducing the rate of incarceration in the state, decreasing recidivism and reducing the number of children entering the Arkansas foster care system.
Chapman briefed those present on what the organization started doing just over a year ago.
"We have about 700 to 800 individuals that would come from the penitentiary back to the community every year, and of that group that comes back, 700 to 800, 58 percent will wind up back in prison within three years," Chapman said. "So the recidivism rate for the people that are coming back from prison to the community is 58 percent. So what we thought is we can try to lower that."
Restore Hope took funding and trained some case managers, Chapman said. The organization works with the Arkansas Department of Correction and Arkansas Community Correction, who identify those who are coming back to the community. Restore Hope then meets with them.
"We offer them help, and if they want it, then we open a case, and we start working some pretty immediate need things, vital documents," Chapman said.
From there, Restore Hope starts moving with that person into re-entry planning.
"So the individuals come from prison where we meet them, we open a case, we start communicating that back to the parole probation office here on Garrison (Avenue in Fort Smith)," Chapman said. "We have leased some space and have a collaborative work environment there where the ACC re-entry officer is there, Goodwill is there, Harbor House has three or four recovery coaches there, Sebastian County Adult Ed. is there. We just added last month ... Karen (Phillips) is a housing expert. She is housed over there."
Chapman said he thinks Restore Hope is a couple of weeks away from having Go Ye Employment Services on site as well.
"They're going to start a transitional employment program with the idea that we can actually get the individual the first job and work with them with a recovery coach and some other wraparound services so that we're always aiming for the next job," Chapman said. "So it's just any old job right now, with the idea that we can actually get you kind of on a career track."
Chapman said at the time Restore Hope has offices for re-entry in Fort Smith, Van Buren, Little Rock/North Little Rock, Conway, Hot Springs, Jonesboro, Searcy and Pine Bluff.
From March 2017 to May 2018, Restore Hope identified and were able to visit 613 people in prison returning to Sebastian, Crawford, White, Garland, Pulaski and Franklin counties, Chapman said. Of that number, 542 cases were opened. An additional 144 connections were given directly to the organization by ACC. Restore Hope was able to connect 272 people to a recovery coach.
Restore Hope is currently collecting data, Chapman said.
"To hit the metrics, you need three years worth of data, but our indicators are right now if someone would do four months of engagement with a recovery coach, they'd have full-time employment, which is only 50 percent for a parolee or a probationer right now," Chapman said. "But everyone that does at least four months with a recovery coach at the time that we're pulling our data, 100 percent full-time employment. They're all legal, they're paying their fees and fines."
Chapman said the relapse rate for these people is also lower.

Muv-Luv, the visual novel franchise that inspired Attack on Titan a decade ago, is now on Kickstarter to be officially localized in English for the first time. Muv-Luv Alternative, one of the novels to be localized, is considered by Japanese and western audiences to be one of the greatest visual novels in history.
The Kickstarter's primary goal is the translation of both Muv-Luv and Muv-Luv Alternative, which form the Muv-Luv "trilogy". Muv-Luv contains both Muv-Luv Extra and Muv-Luv Unlimited, while Muv-Luv Alternative is a direct sequel to the first. The starting goal is $250,000, which is within reason given the project's popularity, but we'll need a lot more to hit some of the best stretch goals. From the Kickstarter page:
Penned by the successful author of Kimi ga Nozumu Eien (well-known as Rumbling Hearts or "Kiminozo"), Koki Yoshimune, the Muv-Luv series started as a high school romance Visual Novel game in 2003 but quickly evolved into an epic science fiction based saga featuring an alternate world, giant aliens, mecha robots, and a complex cast of characters.
Selling more than half a million units since release in Japan alone, The Muv-Luv series has successfully made the transition to anime and manga, even spawning the "Moe Military" trend which is still raging in Japan. With over 3 million individual figurines, robot hobby models, and anime/manga sold; Muv-Luv is a force to be reckoned with and has influenced a huge number of individuals all over the world including prominent artists and creators!
This Kickstarter will focus on the localization and PC/Steam release of the first two titles in the series: Muv-Luv and Muv-Luv Alternative.
Muv-Luv Alternative currently holds a rating of 93/100 on EGS (Japanese website), making it the third-highest rated visual novel in history, whereas western audiences on VNDB have collectively given it a 9.26/10, making it the highest-rated visual novel there.
Here on Ani-TAY, several of us have already experienced this visual novel franchise, and we want you to as well. There's a lot of coverage on the subject on Ani-TAY, you just need the "Muv-Luv" tag.
In addition, you can keep up with our coverage using the tag "Month of Luv".
The Kickstarter is funded. After just six and a half hours, the Kickstarter has raised $250,000 and succeeded. It's stretch goal time.

Tennessee Receives Funding to Collect Data to Help Prevent Violent DeathsNational Violent Death Reporting System to Collect Data from all 50 States
NASHVILLE – The Tennessee Department of Health Office of the State Chief Medical Examiner has received $1.4 million in funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to gather critical data on homicide, suicide and other violent deaths. Tennessee is one of ten states to receive new funding to use the National Violent Death Reporting System, which will provide NVDRS with state-level data on violent deaths from all 50 states, Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico.
"This is about prevention and we welcome this opportunity to improve our ability to track these important facts like the method of injury, the relationship between the victim and the suspect and information on other circumstances like depression," said TDH Commissioner John Dreyzehner, MD, MPH. "Through the National Violent Death Reporting System we can use this data to develop tailored efforts to reduce violent deaths."
NVDRS helps state and local officials understand where, when, why and how violent deaths occur by linking data from medical examiner, law enforcement, toxicology and vital statistics records. It is the only data system for homicide and suicide that links law enforcement data with data from non-law enforcement sources.
Violence is a significant public health problem in Tennessee. In 2017, more than 1,800 Tennesseans died as the result of homicide or suicide. Participating in NVDRS as a national system provides a complete picture of violent deaths across the nation with data to guide prevention efforts, actions and programs that can save lives.
As part of the funding the TDH Office of the State Chief Medical Examiner will form an advisory committee to include data exchange partners to track and prevent acts of violence. The committee will include members who are associated with and knowledgeable about the data sources, interested in using and analyzing the information and can influence agency decisions and cooperation. Partners will include Tennessee's state chief medical examiner, deputy chief medical examiner and representatives from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services, suicide prevention organizations, law enforcement, local medical examiners and other community-based stakeholders concerned with preventing violence.
"To stop violent deaths, we must first understand all the facts," said Tennessee Chief Medical Examiner Julia Goodin, MD. "NVDRS will provide a more complete picture of homicides, suicides and unintentional firearm injury deaths in Tennessee. Knowing the circumstances of violent deaths will help us identify the right prevention efforts and use resources in the best way possible."
For more information on the Tennessee Office of the State Chief Medical Examiner, visit www.tn.gov/health/health-program-areas/oscme.html.
Learn more about NVDRS at www.cdc.gov/violencePrevention/NVDRS/index.html.
The mission of the Tennessee Department of Health is to protect, promote and improve the health and prosperity of people in Tennessee. TDH has facilities in all 95 counties and provides direct services for more than one in five Tennesseans annually as well as indirect services for everyone in the state, including emergency response to health threats, licensure of health professionals, regulation of health care facilities and inspection of food service establishments.

New Web site, campaign educates Hispanics about Rx assistance
New Web site, campaign educates Hispanics about Rx assistance
A new Web site and educational campaign from the Partnership for Prescription Assistance (PPA) aims to educate the Hispanic community about drug assistance programs, reports PPA. However, the site is mostly a translation of the English version, a PPA spokesperson tells ePharm5. Experts say Hispanic marketers should avoid simply translating and should incorporate culturally relevant content. Other portions of the campaign will include ad buys on Hispanic media such as Univision and Telemundo, as well as on local print, radio, and television, according to PPA. The campaign's Spanish-language Web site has information about finding an appropriate assistance plan and a streaming video of a Spanish-language TV commercial which features PPA talking head Montel Williams. The site and the ad tells consumers about the "Help is Here Express," two buses that will travel around the country to promote the program. The events will take place at local community centers, according to the PPA spokesperson.
PPA Launches National Campaign to Help Educate Hispanic Americans About Drug Assistance Programs
PR Newswire via NewsEdge Corporation :
Since April, the PPA, a patient assistance program clearinghouse, has matched more than 1.4 million Americans to public and private patient assistance programs that may provide them with free or nearly free medicines.
Montel Williams, an Emmy-winning syndicated talk show host, author and motivational speaker, is the official national PPA spokesman as America's pharmaceutical research companies expand their efforts to raise public awareness of the more than 475 public and private patient assistance programs available to people in need. Williams is well-known for his work with charitable and patient organizations.
A prominent feature of the PPA's nationwide effort is the "Help is Here Express" -- two buses that crisscross the country, stopping in hundreds of towns and cities to educate uninsured and under-insured patients about drug assistance programs. Efforts are made to match patients with programs that appear to meet their needs.
In addition, a major national advertising campaign was launched last month to draw attention to the free or nearly free medicines available to millions of Americans.
"The goal of the Partnership for Prescription Assistance is to reach as many people in need as possible," said Billy Tauzin, President and CEO of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. "Part of that effort includes educating

Doctor Who and the Communist ; the television career of Malcolm Hulke by Michael Herbert has been published by Five Leaves Press.
Malcolm Hulke (1924-1979) (known as "Mac" to his friends), was a successful writer for radio, television and the cinema from the 1950s to the late 1970s. His work included episodes for Armchair Theatre and The Avengers and eight serials to Doctor Who, broadcast between 1967 and 1974, for which he is best remembered.
Malcolm was a socialist, belonging for a time to the Communist Party of Great Britain. In this pamphlet Michael Herbert examines the life and work of Malcolm Hulke and how his political views fed into his writing. This is the first study of his work.
Michael says, "The late 1960s and early 1970s was a period when when race, the destruction of the environment, industrial militancy, the Cold War and the liberation of women were hot political issues. It's not surprising that a writer such as Hulke, with a political background, incorporated these themes into his work through the medium of science fiction."
He quotes Terrance Dicks, script editor on Doctor Who (1969-1974), who said : "What we never did was commission a Doctor Who with a political message but nonetheless if you look at it there is a streak of anti-authoritarianism in all Mac's work: he doesn't trust the establishment".
Mac himself said of Doctor Who:
"It's a very political show. Remember what politics refers to, it refers to relations hips between groups of people. It doesn't necessarily mean left or right…so all Doctor Who's are political, even though the other group of people are reptiles, they're still a group of people."
Mac died on 6 July 1979. Terrance Dicks recalls that, as a convinced atheist, he had left orders that there was to be no priest, no hymns or other ceremony at his funeral and that therefore his friends sat by the coffin not knowing what to do. "Finally Eric Paice stood up, slapped the coffin and said 'well cheerio, Mac' and wandered out. We all followed him".
Michael Herbert is a Manchester-based historian. He watched the first Doctor Who episode, "An Unearthly Child" on 23 November 1963, aged 8, and has been watching regularly ever since. He will be teaching an evening class on the history of Doctor Who in the spring of 2015 in Stockport. His Doctors are William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee.
Doctor Who and the Communist costs £4 and can be purchased directly from Five Leaves Press by ringing 0115 8373097

'The Lord's Day in the Covenant of Grace'!
Many a time as I wrote on 'The Lord's Day in the Covenant of Grace', I discovered that there all the while were others who experienced the same problems and came to the same conclusions as I have about things I thought I have found and tried to unravel all by myself. I often suspected things to be not as traditionally accepted, only to be surprised by the reality there are others who agreed with me. Sometimes the similarities appeared self-evident and virtually identical; sometimes they were less conclusive.
But God and my book are my witnesses I never borrowed or copied the doctrines of others, whether individual or denominational. My ideas are my own, nevertheless not mine, but, I pray God, of His Word. My book, I believe, proves the genuineness of my hopes and claims.
It must be remembered the book didn't take shape in time as it did in form. Many sections are later inserted. I tried to follow in structure the sequence of the events of the days of God's Passover. Thereafter the historical development of the Church to an extent determined the place in the series each Part would receive. Larger parts shifted into their positions after others had been completed. And so was it with many smaller parts perhaps comprised of but a single idea.
Till today some sections of the book are far from finished or not even started properly. (The "monstrous scope", as Barth said, of the Sabbath Commandment! Its "vast scope", said Calvin.)
Here then, is one – and not the least – of those occasions of unawares coincidence. I did know – or came to know many years after the formulation of my 'first' ideas had taken final shape – about A. T. Robertson on this subject in his 'Grammar', where he reaches conclusion but cautiously. I would not have thought he in another work of his, would agree with the results I have found, so almost exactly and unconditionally! I don't hesitate to admit the solace and inspiration it was to me to find myself in this regard 'on the same side' that this great scholar had stood.
Robertson's Word Pictures of the New Testament
Quote begins:
Now late on the sabbath as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week (opse de sabbatwn, th epipwskoush eiί mian sabbatwn). This careful chronological statement according to Jewish days clearly means that before the sabbath was over, that is before six P.M., this visit by the women was made "to see the sepulchre" (qeorhsai ton tapon). They had seen the place of burial on Friday afternoon (Mark 15:47; Matthew 27:61; Luke 23:55). They had rested on the sabbath after preparing spices and ointments for the body of Jesus (Luke 23:56), a sabbath of unutterable sorrow and woe. They will buy other spices after sundown when the new day has dawned and the sabbath is over (Mark 16:1). Both Matthew here and Luke (Luke 23:54) use dawn (epipwskw) for the dawning of the twenty-four hour-day at sunset, not of the dawning of the twelve-hour day at sunrise. The Aramaic used the verb for dawn in both senses. The so-called Gospel of Peter has epipwskw in the same sense as Matthew and Luke as does a late papyrus. Apparently the Jewish sense of "dawn" is here expressed by this Greek verb. Allen thinks that Matthew misunderstands Mark at this point, but clearly Mark is speaking of sunrise and Matthew of sunset. Why allow only one visit for the anxious women?
Quote ends
<< MAIN PAGE – www.biblestudents.co.za
"In the end of the Sabbath / Late on the Sabbath Day …", Mt.28:1
My friend fromSouth Africa, you are indeed most magnanimous in your display of hyperbole and backbush rhetoric. You presume that no one but you have studied the scripture and can ever understand its truth. I gave my reasons in the quote from A.T. Robertson, Ma, DD, LittD, professor of New Testament and Greek, writer of the Life of Christ and a notable Baptist. I should think he has a little more weight than you have thus far demonstrated. I shall believe him and his viewpoint. Have you read his harmony of the gospels? Have you read anyone's harmony of the gospels?
Many of us have years of study and we are not ignorant of scripture, as you presume. End of argument from my point of view. I shall continue to regard Sunday, the first day of the week, and the day our blessed Lord rose from the tomb, and the day we honour our Lord with worship and the gathering of the saints. The scripture is plain to me.
Robertson in his 'Harmony' renders opse sabbatohn, ON THE SABBATH LATE or words to the effect – I haven't now got the time to go fetch them exactly. And he in his Grammar gives explanation in favour of "late on the Sabbath", only to propose that if the meaning is determined not by grammar, but by exegesis, it may either be "after the Sabbath" or "late on the Sabbath".
And Calvin argued Jesus was resurrected on the Sabbath, and in the very event of His resurrection – according to Calvin – abolished the Sabbath.
James Bailey, 19th cent.?
QB: The Bible Union renders the term by "late in." Meyer gives, "Late upon the Sabbath;" Lange, "But about the end;" Robinson, in Lexicon of Greek Testament, gives, "At the end of," "at the close of," "late,' "late evening," "at the end of the Sabbath;" De Wette and others, "After the Sabbath had ended;" Bloomfield, "After the Sabbath." While seeming to differ, critics substantially agree, as some begin where the others end.
Dr. Schaff, in a foot note on Lange, says: "The usual translation of opse (sero) Sabbatown is, toward the end of the Sabbath, or late in the Sabbath, meaning the closing period, near the end, but still during the Sabbath or late in the day. The Vulgate, vesperi sabbati; Beza, extremo sabbato; Tyndale, the sabbath day at even; Coverdale, upon the evening of the sabbath holy day; Cranmer, Genevan and Bishops versions, "in the latter end of the sabbath day"."
The Greek phrase translated "As it began to dawn" occurs but twice in the New Testament. In Luke 23: 54, it is rendered, "drew on" in the sense as given by Robinson, "to begin." Of Matt. 28:1, he says, "Trop, of the Jewish day beginning at sunset." Casauhon, an eminent critic and theologian atGeneva. in the sixteenth century, says the word is used properly of the first appearing of the heavenly bodies. This is in harmony with a Jewish custom to begin the day with the first appearing of the stars. The "drew on" of Luke, and the "beginning to dawn" (of the stars), would make the meaning of Matthew late in the Sabbath, and not the dawning of sunlight. This would also be in agreement with the Scriptural method of beginning the day at or near sunset.QE
Marshall: "Late of sabbath's";
Check Lightfoot, Coleridge, Young and Knoch!
Revised Version: "Now late on the Sabbath Day".
AT Robertson, 'Grammar' – see http://www.biblestudents.co.za, 'Prof. Bacchiocchi refuses to hear these questions'.
I say we don't even need a direct reference to Jesus' resurrection on the Sabbath Day to know it was on the Sabbath Day – all the Scriptures from the nature of the Sabbath in them, show it would and should have been "In the Sabbath's-time"!

What day of the week Jesus died is trivial. What is important is that Jesus rose. I tend to adhere to the traditional burial on Friday/empty tomb on Sunday observance, but it is strictly my own pov. The one thing Scripture is clear on is that the empty tomb was discovered on the morning of the first day of the week (which would to us be Sunday).
No sure, clean and innocent and may God help me never to judge you for what you hold fast to.
But do you hold fast? No, you are most self-contradictory. Say you, "Irrelevant! … trivial …", yet, "I shall continue to regard Sunday, the first day of the week, and the day our blessed Lord rose from the tomb, and the day we honour our Lord with worship and the gathering of the saints. The scripture is plain to me."
Nevertheless, God has a way of doing things, and one of His ways is to make important an opportunity for the worship of Him BY HIS CHILDREN. It has always been like that, and it has always been just the one day, "God thus concerning spoke", and that Day was "the Sabbath Day of the LORD your God", or, in NT terminology, "the Lord's Day". ONLY THAT, explains the importance the matter has FOR GOD, and then, "for the PEOPLE of God" – "YOUR God". Hb.4:9 uses the word 'apoleipetai' – "stays important", or, "remains valid".
The importance of God's Sabbath Day derives from the Lord of the Sabbath, 1, and 2, the People of the Sabbath.
I have but one concern – where is it? In the SDA-Church? I don't think so! Then where SHOULD it be? In the Reformed, Protestant Churches, in the General Assembly of Believers, in the Church Universal! "He that despised Moses' Law, died without mercy … of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy who … hath … counted (unholy) the blood of the covenant …" – whereby the New Testament Sabbath – "… was sanctified"?
Is mine a preposterous use of Hb.10:29 with reference to the Sabbath seeing the NT Sabbath is sanctified by only the blood of Jesus' mercy?
ONLY THAT, its NAME – "the Lord's Day" / "Sabbath of the LORD your God" – explains the importance the DAY has FOR GOD, and then, "for the PEOPLE of God".
"Scripture is VERY CLEAR that the tomb was found empty on the morning of the first day. Kindly refrain from hijacking this thread into yet another one of your dead horse beatings."
Have I ever denied? Scripture is VERY CLEAR that the tomb was found empty on the morning of the first day, can't YOU see it? Scripture is VERY CLEAR that Jesus was raised before the morning of the first day. Clear?
Then why call it MY dead horse? My faith is built upon the LIVING TRUTH of CHRIST RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD – as the Scriptures promised and as the Scriptures confirmed – "in the Sabbath's fullness of day the First Day of the week
28:1 {Now late on the sabbath as it began to dawn toward the
first day of the week} (\opse de sabbatōn, tēi epiphōskousēi eis
mian sabbatōn\). This careful chronological statement according
to Jewish days clearly means that before the sabbath was over,
that is before six P.M., this visit by the women was made "to see
the sepulchre" (\theorēsai ton taphon\). They had seen the place
of burial on Friday afternoon (Mr 15:47; Mt 27:61; Lu 23:55).
They had rested on the sabbath after preparing spices and
ointments for the body of Jesus (Lu 23:56), a sabbath of
unutterable sorrow and woe. They will buy other spices after
sundown when the new day has dawned and the sabbath is over (Mr
16:1). Both Matthew here and Luke (Lu 23:54) use dawn
(\epiphōskō\) for the dawning of the twenty-four hour-day at
sunset, not of the dawning of the twelve-hour day at sunrise. The
Aramaic used the verb for dawn in both senses. The so-called
Gospel of Peter has \epiphōskō\ in the same sense as Matthew and
Luke as does a late papyrus. Apparently the Jewish sense of
"dawn" is here expressed by this Greek verb. Allen thinks that
Matthew misunderstands Mark at this point, but clearly Mark is
speaking of sunrise and Matthew of sunset. Why allow only one
visit for the anxious women?
28:2 {There was a great earthquake} (\seismos egeneto megas\).
Clearly not the earthquake of 27:51. The precise time of this
earthquake is not given. It was before sunrise on the first day
of the week when the women made the next visit. Matthew alone
relates the coming of the angel of the Lord who rolled away the
stone and was sitting upon it (\apekulise ton lithon kai ekathēto
epanō autou\). If one is querulous about these supernatural
phenomena, he should reflect that the Resurrection of Jesus is
one of the great supernatural events of all time. Cornelius …
Lapide dares to say: "The earth, which trembled with sorrow at
the Death of Christ as it were leaped for joy at His
Resurrection." The Angel of the Lord announced the Incarnation of
the Son of God and also His Resurrection from the grave. There
are apparent inconsistencies in the various narratives of the
Resurrection and the appearances of the Risen Christ. We do not
know enough of the details to be able to reconcile them. But the
very variations strengthen the independent witness to the
essential fact that Jesus rose from the grave. Let each writer
give his own account in his own way. The stone was rolled away
not to let the Lord out, but to let the women in to prove the
fact of the empty tomb (McNeile).
28:3 {Appearance} (\eidea\). Here only in the N.T. Compare
\morphē\ and \schēma\.
28:4 {The watchers did quake} (\eseisthēsan hoi tērountes\). And
no wonder that they became as dead men and fled before the women
28:5 {Unto the women} (\tais gunaixin\). According to John, Mary
Magdalene had left to go and tell Peter and John of the supposed
grave robbery (Joh 20:1f.). But the other women remained and
had the interview with the angel (or men, Luke) about the empty
tomb and the Risen Christ. {Jesus the Crucified} (\Iēsoun ton
estaurōmenon\). Perfect passive participle, state of completion.
This he will always be. So Paul will preach as essential to his
gospel "and this one crucified" (\kai touton estaurōmenon\, 1Co
28:6 {Risen from the dead} (\ēgerthē apo tōn nekrōn\). {Jesus the
Risen}. This is the heart of the testimony of the angel to the
women. It is what Paul wishes Timothy never to forget (2Ti
2:8), "Jesus Christ risen from the dead" (\Iēsoun Christon
egēgermenon ek nekrōn\). They were afraid and dazzled by the
glory of the scene, but the angel said, "Come, see the place
where the Lord lay" (\deute idete ton topon hopou ekeito ho
Kurios\). Some MSS. do not have \ho Kurios\, but he is the
subject of \ekeito\. His body was not there. It will not do to
say that Jesus arose in spirit and appeared alive though his body
remained in the tomb. The empty tomb is the first great fact
confronting the women and later the men. Various theories were
offered then as now. But none of them satisfy the evidence and
explain the survival of faith and hope in the disciples that do
not rest upon the fact of the Risen Christ whose body was no
longer in the tomb.
28:7 {He goeth before you into Galilee} (\proagei humas eis tēn
Galilaian\). Jesus did appear to the disciples in Galilee on two
notable occasions (by the beloved lake, Joh 21, and on the
mountain, Mt 28:16-20). Probably before the women were
permitted to tell this story in full to the disciples who scouted
as idle talk (Joh 24:11) their first accounts, Jesus appeared
to various disciples in Jerusalem on this first great Sunday.
Jesus did not say that he would not see any of them in Jerusalem.
He merely made a definite appointment in Galilee which he kept.
28:8 {With fear and great joy} (\meta phobou kai charas
megalēs\). A touch of life was this as the excited women ran
quickly (\tachu edramon\) as they had been told "to bring his
disciples word" (\apaggeilai tois mathētais autou\). They had the
greatest piece of news that it was possible to have. Mark calls
it fear and ecstasy. Anything seemed possible now. Mark even says
that at first they told no one anything for they were afraid (Mr
16:9), the tragic close of the text of Mark in Aleph and B, our
two oldest manuscripts. But these mingled emotions of ecstasy and
dread need cause no surprise when all things are considered.
28:9 {Jesus met them} (\Iēsous hupēntēsen autais\). Came suddenly
face to face (\antaō, hupo\) with them as they brooded over the
message of the angel and the fact of the empty tomb (associative
instrumental, \autais\). Cf. 8:34; 24:1-6. Probably the lost
portion of Mark's Gospel contained the story of this meeting with
Jesus which changed their fears into joy and peace. His greeting
was the ordinary "Hail" (\chairete\). They fell at his feet and
held them in reverence while they worshipped him. Jesus allowed
this act of worship though he forbade eager handling of his body
by Mary Magdalene (Joh 20:17). It was a great moment of faith
and cheer.
28:10 {Fear not} (\mē phobeisthe\). They were still afraid for
joy and embarrassment. Jesus calms their excitement by the
repetition of the charge from the angel for the disciples to meet
him in Galilee. There is no special mention of Peter ("and
Peter") as in Mr 16:7, but we may be sure that the special
message to Peter was delivered.
28:11 {Told unto the chief priests} (\apēggeilan tois
archiereusin\). These Roman soldiers had been placed at the
disposal of the Sanhedrin. They were probably afraid also to
report to Pilate and tell him what had happened. They apparently
told a truthful account as far as they understood it. But were
the Sanhedrin convinced of the resurrection of Jesus?
28:12 {They gave large money} (\arguria hikana edōkan\). The use
of the plural for pieces of silver (\arguria\) is common. The
papyri have many instances of \hikana\ for considerable (from
\hikanō\, to reach to, attain to). These pious Sanhedrists knew
full well the power of bribes. They make a contract with the
Roman soldiers to tell a lie about the resurrection of Jesus as
they paid Judas money to betray him. They show not the slightest
tendency to be convinced by the facts though one had risen from
the dead.
28:13 {Stole him away while we slept} (\eklepsan auton hēmōn
koimōmenōn\). Genitive absolute. An Irish bull on the face of it.
If they were asleep they would not know anything about it.
28:14 {We will persuade him, and rid you of care} (\hēmeis
peisomen kai humas amerimnous poiēsomen\). They would try money
also on Pilate and assume all responsibility. Hence the soldiers
have no anxiety (\amerimnous\, alpha privative and \merimnaō\, to
be anxious). They lived up to their bargain and this lie lives on
through the ages. Justin (_Dial_. 108) accuses the Jews of
spreading the charge. Bengel: _Quam laboriosum bellum mendacii
contra veritatem_. {It was spread about} (\diephēmisthē\)
diligently by the Jews to excuse their disbelief in the
Messiahship of Jesus.
28:17 {But some doubted} (\hoi de edistasan\). From \dis\ (in
two, divided in mind). Cf. Mt 14:31. The reference is not to
the eleven who were all now convinced after some doubt, but to
the others present. Paul states that over five hundred were
present, most of whom were still alive when he wrote (1Co
15:6). It is natural that some should hesitate to believe so
great a thing at the first appearance of Jesus to them. Their
very doubt makes it easier for us to believe. This was the
mountain where Jesus had promised to meet them. This fact
explains the large number present. Time and place were arranged
beforehand. It was the climax of the various appearances and in
Galilee where were so many believers. They worshipped
(\prosekunēsan\) Jesus as the women had done (28:9). He is now
their Risen Lord and Saviour.
28:18 {All authority} (\pāsa exousia\). Jesus came close to them
(\proselthōn\) and made this astounding claim. He spoke as one
already in heaven with a world-wide outlook and with the
resources of heaven at his command. His authority or power in his
earthly life had been great (7:29; 11:27; 21:23f.). Now it is
boundless and includes earth and heaven. {Hath been given}
(\edothē\) is a timeless aorist (Robertson, _Grammar_, pp.
836f.). It is the sublimist of all spectacles to see the Risen
Christ without money or army or state charging this band of five
hundred men and women with world conquest and bringing them to
believe it possible and to undertake it with serious passion and
power. Pentecost is still to come, but dynamic faith rules on
this mountain in Galilee.
28:19 {All the nations} (\panta ta ethnē\). Not just the Jews
scattered among the Gentiles, but the Gentiles themselves in
every land. And not by making Jews of them, though this point is
not made plain here. It will take time for the disciples to grow
into this _Magna Charta_ of the missionary propaganda. But here
is the world program of the Risen Christ and it should not be
forgotten by those who seek to foreshorten it all by saying that
Jesus expected his second coming to be very soon, even within the
lifetime of those who heard. He did promise to come, but he has
never named the date. Meanwhile we are to be ready for his coming
at any time and to look for it joyfully. But we are to leave that
to the Father and push on the campaign for world conquest. This
program includes making disciples or learners (\mathēteusate\)
such as they were themselves. That means evangelism in the
fullest sense and not merely revival meetings. Baptism in (\eis\,
not _into_) the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
in the name of the Trinity. Objection is raised to this language
in the mouth of Jesus as too theological and as not a genuine
part of the Gospel of Matthew for the same reason. See Mt
11:27, where Jesus speaks of the Father and the Son as here. But
it is all to no purpose. There is a chapter devoted to this
subject in my _The Christ of the Logia_ in which the genuineness
of these words is proven. The name of Jesus is the essential part
of it as is shown in the Acts. Trine immersion is not taught as
the Greek Church holds and practices, baptism in the name of the
Father, then of the Son, then of the Holy Spirit. The use of name
(\onoma\) here is a common one in the Septuagint and the papyri
for power or authority. For the use of \eis\ with \onoma\ in the
sense here employed, not meaning _into_, see Mt 10:41f. (cf.
also 12:41).
28:20 {Teaching them} (\didaskontes autous\). Christians have
been slow to realize the full value of what we now call religious
education. The work of teaching belongs to the home, to the
church (sermon, Sunday school, young people's work,
prayer-meeting, study classes, mission classes), to the school
(not mixing of church and state, but moral instruction if not the
reading of the Bible), good books which should be in every home,
reading of the Bible itself. Some react too far and actually put
education in the place of conversion or regeneration. That is to
miss the mark. But teaching is part, a weighty part, of the work
of Christians.
{I am with you} (\egō meta humōn\). This is the amazing and
blessed promise. He is to be with the disciples when he is gone,
with all the disciples, with all knowledge, with all power, with
them all the days (all sorts of days, weakness, sorrows, joy,
power), till the consummation of the age (\heōs tēs sunteleias
tou aiōnos\). That goal is in the future and unknown to the
disciples. This blessed hope is not designed as a sedative to an
inactive mind and complacent conscience, but an incentive to the
fullest endeavor to press on to the farthest limits of the world
that all the nations may know Christ and the power of his Risen
Life. So Matthew's Gospel closes in a blaze of glory. Christ is
conqueror in prospect and in fact. Christian history from that
eventful experience on the Mountain in Galilee has been the
fulfilment of that promise in as far as we allow God's power to
work in us for the winning of the world to Christ, the Risen, all
powerful Redeemer, who is with his people all the time. Jesus
employs the prophetic present here (\eimi\, I am). He is with us
all the days till he comes in glory.

I guess I should write an Introduction to myself, being where I am and all that.
Hello, I am Nathan from East Sussex, a lovely county in the corner of the United Kingdom. I am currently studying 4 A-levels at college that are: Physics, Geology and Further Maths (counts as two A-levels). I have a real interest in engineering, trains, road networks, and of course (but not as much) trucks. My real passion is for engineering and mathematics that goes with it I would say, not to mention my organisational skills (annoying, but they're there )
I have been drawing road plans with full signage layouts since I was 4 years old, so to be a part of ProMods and promote realism in a game was my destiny you could say. My first Steam game was Train Simulator, and I only got Steam because I thought that download option included Steam Trains I was silly back then, but now I have grown from Junior Beta Tester to Moderator, and I do help replace things here and there on the WIP version of the map (no spoilers, don't ask!). I think I first played with ProMods since 1.90, but I cannot remember. Since 2.17 I have been part of the team, and I hope to bring good experiences to all of you along with the rest of the team.
Although I may not be the oldest or wisest member (yet not the youngest either), you can always ask me for anything you may require (especially bug report wise) and I will be happy to help.
Happy ProMods trucking everyone!
Current task: Aesthetics work on the map
Eternal task: Clear bug forums
