Summary[edit]

Description
English: Discovery of the empty tomb, from a gospel lectionary according to the Nestorian use. Copied by Elia at Mosul, Iraq. Image taken from Gospel Lectionary. Originally published in Mosul, Iraq, 1499. Add MS 7174. Saint Mary Magdalene is portrayed as finding the empty tomb accompanied by Jesus Christ (who is partially effaced), two angels, and six “sinful Jews who gathered(?)” (ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܚܛܝܐ ܩܒܘܐ). Among the most remarkable aspects of this particular illustration is the variation in attire between it and the miniatures found in the other manuscripts. Here, all the men are wearing turbans and something more akin to a cloak worn by a local cleric than the flowing robes found in the other texts.
