Then. [Appearance on a Mountain in Galilee, Matt. 28:16–20=Mark 16:15–18. Major comment: Matthew.] On this appearance see Additional Note at end of chapter.

A mountain. The place is not specified. It may have been some spot already closely associated in the minds of the disciples with the life ministry of Jesus, such as the place where the Sermon on the Mount was given (see on ch. 5:1), or where the Transfiguration occurred (see on ch. 17:1). About 500 believers were gathered together upon this occasion (1 Cor. 15:6).
