«Chapter 20»

Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.

They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”

“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.

“Woman,” he said, “why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?”

Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.”

Jesus said to her, “Mary.”

She turned toward him and cried out, “Teacher!”

Jesus said, “DO NOT HOLD ON TO ME, for I have not yet returned to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”

Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.

RISEN JESUS TELLS
MARY MAGDALENE,
“DO NOT HOLD ON TO ME”

[Mathews]

What is the significance of the hoe/shovel in Jesus’ hands and the little canister/bottle between him and Mary depicted in many of these works?

[spankalib]

Jhn 20:15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

[spankalib]

...and I think the canister was the vessel containing the herbs/oils Mary was to use to anoint the body.

[Hebrews 11:6]

the hoe/shovel in Jesus’ hands: Artists' way of illustrating her "Thinking he was the gardener..."

the little canister/bottle between him and Mary: Artists presuming Mary intended to use its contents to anoint Jesus' body.

Good Morning Dan, and blessed ‘end of the work-week’ to all.

Surprising how many paintings on this ‘sub-topic’

Thank you.

Surprising how many paintings on this ‘sub-topic’

With the way the Magdalene has been featured as such a major character in The Chosen, this "sub-topic" is certain to be given prominence in its final season.
