Mark 15:40
  Interlinear
There were also some women who were watching what was happening from a distance. Among them were
Mary from [the town of] Magdala [on the western side of Gennesaret, whom Jesus had freed from seven demons, see Luke 8:2], Mary, mother of the younger James and Joses [perhaps Jesus' mother, see Mark 6:3, or the wife of Clopas, see John 19:25]
and Salome [mother of the disciples James and John, married to Zebedee, see Matt. 27:56.]
Mark 16:1
  Interlinear
[It is now the 16th of Nisan according to the Jewish calendar.]
When the Sabbath [weekly Sabbath] was over [after sunset on Saturday evening], Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought fragrant spices so that they could go and anoint him.
[After sunset, the shops opened for a few hours. In 30 CE, the 17th of Nisan extends from Saturday evening to Sunday afternoon. It is also the third day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and this year the day also coincides with the Feast of Firstfruits, bikkurim, see Lev. 23:9–14. There are two traditions for sacrifices surrounding this feast. According to the Pharisees, the firstfruits sacrifice should take place in the evening (at the beginning of the day), while the Sadducees believed it should be in the morning. Since the latter were in the majority in the Sanhedrin, the wave offering probably took place early on Sunday morning. Imagine if, at the same time as a sheaf was waved in the temple as a firstfruits offering, the news spread that Jesus had risen, see 1 Cor. 15:20. The Bible does not give an exact account of when Jesus rose, only that the tomb was empty at dawn on the first day of the week, Sunday, see verses 2 and 6.]
