Matthew 28:1-10
1Now after the Sabbath, as it was dawning toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the grave. 2And look, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and was sitting on it. 3And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 4And for fear of him the guards shook and became like dead men. 5But the angel answered the women, “Do not be afraid, you, for I know that you are seeking Jesus, who has been crucified. 6He is not here, for he has been raised, just as he said. Come, see the place where he was lying. 7And go quickly and tell his disciples that ‘He has been raised from the dead, and look, he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.’ Look, I have told you.” 8And going away quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to tell his disciples. 9And look, Jesus met them, saying, “Greetings.” And they came up and took hold of his feet and bowed down before him. 10Then Jesus says to them, “Do not be afraid; go, tell my brothers to go away to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
1And when the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the tomb when the sun had risen. 3And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?” 4And looking up, they see that the stone had been rolled away; for it was very large. 5And entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were greatly alarmed. 6But he says to them, “Do not be alarmed. You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. 7But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him, just as he told you.” 8And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid. Shorter ending: And all that they had been commanded they reported briefly to those around Peter. And after these things Jesus himself also sent out through them, from east to west, the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Amen.
1But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bringing the spices that they had prepared. 2And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3but when they went in, they did not find the body. 4And it happened, while they were perplexed about this, that look, two men stood by them in flashing clothing. 5And as they became terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living one among the dead? 6He is not here, but he has been raised. Remember how he spoke to you while he was still in Galilee, 7saying that the Son of Man must be handed over into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” 8And they remembered his words. 9And returning from the tomb, they reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. 10Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who were telling these things to the apostles. 11And these words seemed to them like nonsense, and they would not believe them. 12But Peter got up and ran to the tomb; and stooping to look in, he sees the linen cloths alone; and he went away to his home, marveling at what had happened.
1Now on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene comes early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and she sees the stone taken away from the tomb. 2So she runs and comes to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, whom Jesus held dear, and says to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put him.” 3So Peter and the other disciple went out, and they were going to the tomb. 4And the two were running together, and the other disciple ran ahead, faster than Peter, and came first to the tomb. 5And stooping to look in, he sees the linen cloths lying there; yet he did not go in. 6So Simon Peter also comes, following him, and he went into the tomb; and he sees the linen cloths lying there, 7and the face cloth that had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths but rolled up separately in one place. 8So then the other disciple, who had come first to the tomb, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9for they did not yet understand the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead. 10So the disciples went away again to their homes.
