Also an intruguing Resurrection at Llangadwaladr on Anglesey: http://stainedglass.llgc.org.uk/object/2348
click on the larger image and you can see it depicts the bones under the skin - but there is some uncertainty how much of this is actually medieval. The Crucifixion in the main window certainly is medieval and shows the bones -
'I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death ....
I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.'
