Gregory the Great — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on John 20:10-18

Patristic A.D. 604
Gregory the Great · c. A.D. 540–604
“(Hom. xxv.) 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.”
