Him, that this day (Easter Sunday) rose from the clods, we expect from the clouds, to raise our bodies, to perform His promises, to finish our faith, to perfect our glory, and to draw us unto Himself.  I do not say, Come, see the place where they laid Him, that is empty; but, Come, see the place where He is; here is the Lord.  I say not with Mary, They have taken away the Lord, and I know not where they have laid Him; He is personally in heaven, He is mystically, sacramentally, yea, in a spiritual sense, He is really here…As God spake to the fish, and it cast up Jonah, commanded the earth, and it delivered up Jesus; so He will speak to all creatures, and they shall not detain one dust of our bodies.

Thomas Adams

And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council.  And they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate.  And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”  And he answered him, “You have said so.”  And the chief priests accused him of many things.  And Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer to make?  See how many charges they bring against you.”  But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.

Mark 15:1-5
