Jump to Previous Ahead Dead Disciples Galilee Goes News Quickly Remember Risen RoseJump to Next Ahead Dead Disciples Galilee Goes News Quickly Remember Risen RoseMatthew 28 1. Christ's resurrection is declared by an angel to the women.9. He himself appears unto them. 11. The chief priests pay the soldiers to say that he was stolen out of his tomb. 16. Christ appears to his disciples, 18. and sends them to baptize and teach all nations. Then go quickly The phrase "Then go quickly" is a directive given by the angel to the women at the tomb. The Greek word for "quickly" is "ταχέως" (tacheōs), which implies urgency and immediacy. This urgency reflects the importance of the message they are to deliver. In the context of the resurrection, the speed of their action symbolizes the transformative power of the resurrection, which demands a swift response. Historically, the resurrection was a pivotal event that required immediate dissemination, as it was the cornerstone of the Christian faith. and tell His disciples He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee There you will see Him as He has told you Persons / Places / Events 1. The AngelA divine messenger who appears at the tomb to announce Jesus' resurrection to the women. 2.

The Disciples The followers of Jesus who are to be informed of His resurrection and instructed to go to Galilee. 4. Jesus The risen Lord who has conquered death and is going ahead to Galilee. 5. Galilee The region where Jesus instructed His disciples to meet Him after His resurrection. Teaching Points The Role of Women in the Resurrection NarrativeWomen were the first to witness and proclaim the resurrection, highlighting their important role in the early church. The Fulfillment of Jesus' Promises Jesus' resurrection and His meeting with the disciples in Galilee demonstrate the reliability of His words and promises. The Urgency of the Gospel Message The angel's command to "go quickly" underscores the urgency and importance of sharing the good news of Jesus' resurrection. The Assurance of Jesus' Presence Jesus going ahead to Galilee assures the disciples of His continued presence and leadership, even after His resurrection. The Call to Faith and Obedience The disciples are called to respond in faith and obedience by going to Galilee, trusting in Jesus' words and promises.(7) He goeth before you into Galilee.--The words seem to point to a meeting in Galilee as the first appearance of the risen Lord to His disciples, and St. Matthew records no other. No adequate explanation can be given of the omission of what the other Gospels report, if we assume the whole Gospel to have been written by the Apostle Matthew. On the hypothesis that it is a "Gospel according to Matthew," representing the substance of his oral teaching, the absence of this or that fact which we should have expected him to record may have been due to some idiosyncrasy in the scribe, or, so to speak, editor of the Gospel. It is possible that if the disciples had believed the report brought by the women the mountain in Galilee would have been the scene of the first meeting between them and their Master; but they did not believe, and required the evidence which He in His compassion gave them, in order to quicken their faith and lead them to obey the command thus given.Verse 7. - Go quickly, and tell his disciples. St. Mark significantly adds, "and Peter." The disciples were to believe without seeing. They had deserted Christ in his hour of need, had not stood by the cross, nor aided in his burial; so they were not to be honoured with the vision of angels or the first sight of the risen Lord. This was reserved for the faithful women, who thus received their mission to carry a message to the messengers - a foretaste of the ministry which they should perform in the Church of Christ. He goeth before you (προάγει ὑμᾶς) into Galilee. The verb is noticeable. It is that used by our Lord himself on his way to the garden of Gethsemane (Matthew 26:32), and it implies the act of a shepherd at the head of his flock, leading them to new pastures (comp. John 10:4). The good Shepherd had been smitten, and the sheep scattered; now under his guidance they were to be reunited. The apostolic band had been temporarily dissolved and disintegrated; the college was again to be reformed, and was to receive its renewed commission in seclusion and peace, that it might return to Jerusalem with unimpaired strength to commence its arduous labours. The place of meeting is in Galilee, where most of his mighty works were done, and where it was safer for the disciples to assemble than at Jerusalem. The majority of them came from this region, and thither they returned some ten days (John 20:26; John 21:1-4) after the Resurrection, to resume their ordinary occupations (ver. 16). Thus they would realize that it was the same Jesus who met them there with whom, these three past years, they had held familiar intercourse. It was ordained, for some reason not expressly stated, that from Galilee should proceed Christ's spiritual kingdom which he came to establish - that "word which," as Peter said (Acts 10:37), "was published throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee." We read of only two appearances of Christ in Galilee - once at the lake, mentioned in the last chapter of St. John, and again in ver. 17 of this chapter of St. Matthew. It is, however, possible that the appearance named by St. Paul (1 Corinthians 15:6), when he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at one time, may have occurred in Galilee. If this is the case, it would be remarkable as the only public revelation of Christ after his resurrection, and the comparative seclusion of the northern district may have been one reason for its selection as the scene for this great demonstration. There was doubtless some moral fitness in the humble and despised Galilee being made the starting point of his Church who was despised and rejected of men whom it was contemptuously said, "Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?" (John 7:41). "As in all things God sets at naught the pride of mankind, and chooses persons, instruments, and places mean in the eves of the world, teaching us that in humbler and more retired abodes, secret from the world, we are to seek for the strength of God, who hideth himself" (I. Williams). Lo, I have told you. The angel thus solemnly confirms what he had just said.
