This year I weigh in on a couple of alleged contradictions in the Easter stories that I've never discussed elsewhere (as far as I can remember). One of these concerns when the women bought and prepared spices. The other, on which I spend more time, is the claim that Matthew contradicts Luke and Mark about where the women saw an angel at Jesus' tomb.

Blessed Easter to everyone!

Here is a good post by Jonathan McLatchie that I'm agreeing with and supplementing:

Here are a whole bunch of videos from earlier Easters, some of them more inspirational:
