<p>20:6 <em>Simon Peter arrived behind him and entered into the tomb, and he saw the linen cloths lying there</em>- Peter and John went to the tomb after having first of all disbelieved Mary Magdalene (Lk. 24:11). The state of the linen cloths was what provoked John's faith (:8); for it is John who notes the huge quantity of myrrh used to embalm the Lord's body, and &quot;myrrh... glues linen to the body not less firmly than lead&quot; (Leon Morris, <em>John</em> p. 736). The fact the cloths were neatly placed as they were was therefore a powerful evidence that the Lord had risen, and not been extricated from the cloths by any human effort.</p>
