2. And very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
3. And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?”
4. And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away, although it was very large.
5. And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, wearing a white robe; and they were amazed.
6. And he said to them, “Do not be amazed; you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen; He is not here; behold, the place where they laid Him.
7. But go, tell His disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see Him, just as He told you.’”
8. And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment were gripping them; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid."
Mark 16:1-9 Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)
ARE THESE MARK'S MISSING VERSES?
9. And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Rejoice!” And they came up and took hold of His feet, and worshiped Him.
10. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go, bring word to My brothers to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
11. Now while they were on their way, some of the men from the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.
12. And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,
13. and said, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him while we were asleep.’
14. And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will appease him and keep you out of trouble.”
15. And they took the money and did as they had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews and is to this day.
16. But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated to them.
17. And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful.
18. And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.
19. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
20. teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
Matthew 28:9-20 New American Standard Bible NASB
Did Peter and Mark use Matthew's Gospel to write the Gospel of Mark?
Let's compare the first verses in Mark 16 to the first verses in Matthew 28.
MATTHEW 28:1 Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the tomb.
MARK 16:1 Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him.
MATTHEW 28:2 And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone, and sat upon it.
MARK 16:2 Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
MATTHEW 28:3 And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
MARK 16:3 And they said among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?”
MATTHEW 28:4 The guards shook from fear of him and became like dead men.
MARK 16:4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away—for it was very large.
MATTHEW 28:5 And the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.
MARK 16:5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.
MATTHEW 28:6 He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.
MARK 16:6 But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.
MATTHEW 28:7 And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”
MARK 16:7 But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you.”
MATTHEW 28:8 And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His disciples.
MARK 16:8 So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
Mark 16:1-8, Matthew 28:1-8 New Kings James Version
Is it possible that Peter and Mark used Matthew's Gospel, writing the Gospel of Mark, in the voice of a fisherman?
The New American Standard Bible contains both the long and the short additions of Mark 16:9-20 in brackets; because these verses were not found in early manuscripts.
Nothing is lost by keeping your Bible translation the way it's written.
But if Matthew 28 is similar to the lost verses in Mark 16, God has a unique way of preserving His Word.
