Easter Sunday (Year 2, NL)

After Jesus shared his last supper with his friends, they sang a hymn together. There is every reason to believe it was the Hallel, Psalms 113 through 118. How have I missed this before?

If Mark’s ending creates discomfort and uncertainty, it is partly due to our knowledge of how the Easter story is told in the other Gospels.

Is this any way to run a resurrection? Is this enough to persuade, to stir new life in the followers of Jesus?

What has God done? Everything. What have we done in return? Nothing.
