Luke 24:5

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth (see the note at Luke 1:12 ), they said, unto them, Why, seek ye the living, [ ton (G3588) zoonta (G2198)] - 'the Living One.'

Among the dead? Astonishing question! It is not, Why seek ye the risen One? but "Why seek ye the Living One among the dead?" See the note at Revelation 1:18. The surprise expressed in the question implies a certain incongruity in His being there at all; as if, though He might submit to it, "it was impossible that He should be holden of it" (Acts 2:24).
