CommentGregory the GreatPublic domainJohn 20:10–18

So the sin of mankind is buried in the very place whence it came forth. For whereas in Paradise the woman gave the man the deadly fruit, a woman from the sepulchre announced life to men; a woman delivers the message of Him who raises us from the dead, as a woman had delivered the words of the serpent who slew us.

Reproduced in full. Translation: Oxford 1841 (Newman), public domain (Public domain).
