Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 20:11

"But Mary was standing without at the tomb weeping: so, as she wept, she stooped and looked into the tomb;" — John 20:11 (ASV)

Without at the sepulcher weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked –

Some can weep, but never look. Do not act so, beloved, but look for comfort even when your heart is breaking: As she wept, she stooped down, and looked –

But Mary stood, –

She was not going away home. Love cannot leave the place where it lost its object; it will continue to search there: But Mary stood.
