Charles Spurgeon Commentary Mark 16:11

"And they, when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, disbelieved." — Mark 16:11 (ASV)

And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

This was both cruel to the Magdalene and forgetful of their Master's word, but unbelief is a very cruel thing. It is not only grievous to ourselves, but it acts in a shameful manner to Christian brothers and sisters, and worst of all is its treatment of our Divine Master himself. It says that he is dead, when truly he is alive.

Unbelief has no good in it; it is altogether evil, only evil, and that continually. The Lord deliver us from it!
