  • On the third day the friends of Christ coming at daybreak to the place found the grave empty and the stone rolled away.

What they were looking at was the first day of a new creation, with a new heaven and a new earth; and in a semblance of the gardener God walked again in the garden, in the cool not of the evening but of the dawn.
