Matthew 28: 1-8
After the sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary
Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. And suddenly
there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, descending
from heaven, came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. His
appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. For
fear of him the guards shook and became like dead men. But the
angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid; I know that you are
looking for Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for he has been
raised, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go
quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead,
and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see
him,’ This is my message for you,’ So they left the tomb quickly with
fear and great joy and ran to tell his disciples.
