A:The first to realise that the tomb was empty varies from gospel to gospel, as do the circumstances of the discovery:
- Matthew 28:1: Mary Magdalene and the other Mary
- Mark 16:1-2:0 Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome
- Luke 24:1_10: Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women
- John 21:1: Mary Magdalene
