With the syntax of ANASTAS DE PRWÏ PRWTHi SABBATOU in Mk, is it
possible to see some help from the example of the syntax of Mt 28:1?

OYE DE SABBATWN TH EPIFWSKOUSHi EIS MIAN SABBATWN, HLQEN MARIAM hH
MAGDALHNHi KAI hH ALLH MARIA.

I wonder whether I can see ANSTAS DE in Mk to  correspond to OYE DE SABBATWN
in Mt so as to make the phrase PRWÏ PRWTHi SABBATOU in Mk  be more
likely construed kataphorically with EFANH.

Personally it seems to me very natural to read it anaphorically
construed as most of English translations render, taking also 'early'
as 'early in the morning' not 'early in a Jewish day right after the
sunset'.
