Mark 16:8–9 — “For They Were Afraid”: Does the Transition Require a Lost Ending?

Verse 8 ends with the women’s fear and the particle “for”; verse 9 begins a new resurrection paragraph with Jesus as the understood subject. The transition is abrupt but intelligible.

Verification
Passage, principal readings, and stated editorial comparison checked against Scrivener’s received Greek text and the SBLGNT apparatus; exhaustive manuscript collation remains open. Metzger commentary entries were matched by exact passage where present; ECM/CBGM rationale is passage-specific only when an official editorial explanation is cited. Ledger rows are identified as UBS6 / intended NA29 data but retain their row-level verification caveats pending direct collation. Supplied-source audit completed in Core 0.6.3. Accepted local notes were matched by canonical passage and manually bounded; source claims remain attributed where current apparatus verification is pending.

Adverse entailment established

Mark 16:9–20 III — Lectionaries, Eusebian Sections, and Ecclesiastical Reception

Lectionaries read portions of the ending at Easter and Ascension, while early Eusebian section systems often stop at verse 8. These are different kinds of evidence and should not be forced into one verdict.

Verification
Burgon’s lectionary argument and the absence of standard Eusebian sections after Mark 16:8 are treated as distinct evidence. His liturgical-endpoint account is explicitly classified as hypothesis. Metzger commentary entries were matched by exact passage where present; ECM/CBGM rationale is passage-specific only when an official editorial explanation is cited. Ledger rows are identified as UBS6 / intended NA29 data but retain their row-level verification caveats pending direct collation. Supplied-source audit completed in Core 0.6.3. Accepted local notes were matched by canonical passage and manually bounded; source claims remain attributed where current apparatus verification is pending.
