DEVOTION: Mark 16:1-8 English Standard Version (ESV)
The Resurrection
16 When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb. 3 And they were saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?"4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large. 5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. 6 And he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you." 8 And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
Watch and share the good news! Christ is risen!

YESTERDAY'S QUIZ: Who is Hannah (from the Bible)?
A funny one from Sandy Robine: So, on the heels of Don's answer yesterday, Hannah is the daughter of Naomi the soprano in the choir! Hahaha
Oh wow, this is getting really good now. Hannah was the mother of Samuel. And Samuel is the son of Naomi in the choir and the brother of Hannah!!!!! YIKES!!!
The biblical Samuel was the son of Hannah who, before then, was childless. She had vowed to God that if she could have a son that she would dedicate him to God. I also read that Samuel was born to her and was in fact dedicated to God. I also read that Samuel along with Samson were the only ones ever mentioned in the bible as being a Nazrite. Did I read that correctly?
You sure can tell our Naomi, soprano on the choir, was a preacher's kid with all these family names. Hee hee.
Don Nolte's answer: Hannah ( in the Bible) was The mother of Samuel. I Samuel 1 and 2
