There is something fascinating about illusionists like David Copperfield or Penn and Teller. There is that anticipation of the big reveal, when that plane appears out of thin air or the box that some girl crawled into is suddenly empty. Of course, we all know that it is illusion for a reason. It's not magic; it's simply misdirection.
Some could look at the empty tomb and perhaps look at it no differently than a Copperfield illusion. But the reveal here is much different than in any staged magic trick. Instead of seeing a rabbit coming out of a hat, we see the Son of God, at one time stone dead, calling Mary's name, his hands still showing the marks of the nails. This is no illusion; it is a miracle.
