Mark 16 Commentary Series: Verse 6

And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted:
Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified:
he is risen; he is not here:
behold the place where they laid him.
Mark 16:6
 
Adam Clarke
Charles Spurgeon
Matthew Henry
 
 Jesus of Nazareth - The Jews had given this name to Christ by way of reproach, Matthew 2:23; but
as it was under this name that he was crucified, John 19:19, the angel here, and the apostles after, have given him the same name, Acts 4:10, etc. Names which the world, in derision, fixes all the followers of God, ..... Let us be contented to bear it, and thus carry about with us the reproach of Christ;
Make sure, beloved, that you know the truth for yourselves,...
As angels rejoice in the conversation of sinners, so they do also in the consolation of sinners. Be not affrighted. Ye are faithful lovers of Jesus Christ, and therefore, instead of being confounded, out to be comforted. Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified. Note, The enquiries of believing souls after Christ, have a particular regard to him as crucified  1 Corinthians 2:2, that they may know him, and the fellowship of his sufferings.
