Matthew 28:1-10 ▼

1 Now after the Sabbaths, it being dawn toward the first of the Sabbaths, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.

2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, having descended out of heaven and having come, rolled away the stone and was sitting upon it.

3 And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.

4 And those keeping guard trembled from fear of him, and they became like dead men.

5 And answering, the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you? seek Jesus, the One having been crucified.

6 He is not here, for He is risen, as He said! Come, see the place where He was lying.

7 And having gone quickly, say to His disciples, ‘He is risen from the dead, and behold, He goes before you? into Galilee; there you? will see Him.’ Behold, I have told you?.”

8 And having gone out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to tell His disciples.

9 And behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings!” And having come, they took hold of His feet and worshiped Him.

10 Then Jesus says to them, “Do not be afraid. Go, tell My brothers, so that they should go into Galilee. And there they will see Me.”
