Macgill, Thomas (Curate of Clapham)
"He was buried." A Sermon for Easter Even
Transcribed from the 1849 D. Batten edition by David Price
"He was buried." A Sermon for Easter Even by Thomas Macgill is a religious sermon written in the mid-19th century. The text reflects on the burial of Jesus Christ, exploring themes of death, hope, and resurrection in the context of Christian faith. This sermon is intended to inspire contemplation and reflection on the significance of Christ’s death and burial, particularly in relation to the Easter celebration. In this sermon, Macgill delves deeply into the emotional and spiritual gravitas of Christ's burial, emphasizing the sorrow felt by His followers and the profound implications of His sacrifice. He describes the few mourners present at the burial, contrasting their devotion with the desertion of His disciples during His crucifixion. Macgill articulates how the burial serves as a pivotal moment in the Christian narrative, where despair meets hope, reminding believers of the ultimate victory over death through Christ's resurrection. The sermon also invites listeners to reflect on their own spiritual state in light of Christ’s sacrifice and the inevitability of death, encouraging them to find solace and strength in their faith.
