After the death of our savior, he reveals himself to Mary Magdalene first. What do you think would be the reason in revealing himself to Mary first rather than to his apostles? Why is it his apostles did not help in keeping the dead body of our savior after his death?

Because Jesus loved Mary Magdalene and went to see his lover. I know it isn't mentioned in the Bible but it is pure logic and well what can we say the Bible is far from being a complete book where you can really put any faith in what is written in it and what was the true writtings of the Bible as Churches and Kings have edited the Bible to their liking.

Apart from the Apostle John, the women followers of Jesus were the only ones who stayed with Him during His crucifixion. Also, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were courageous enough to go to the tomb even though being a follower of Jesus was dangerous at this time. I think she earned the right to be the first.

Personally, to show that woman, in God's eyes, is not secondary to man despite what my Catholic roots would want us to believe. Also, consider that Mary was in the public eye while the apostles were clustered in hiding for fear of their lives so he obviously depended upon the stronger personality/belief to announce his resurection...Enjoy!
