Matthew 28:1-10 - Jesus Is Raised

¹ Now late on the Sabbath day, being dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. ² And behold, a great earthquake occurred, for an agent of Lord, having descended from heaven, having come, he rolled the stone away from the door and sat upon it. ³ And his appearance was as lightning and his clothing white as snow. ⁴ And those watching over shook from fear of him, and became as dead men.

⁵ And having responded, the agent said to the women, Fear ye not, for I know that ye seek Jesus, who was crucified. ⁶ He is not here, for he was raised as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. ⁷ And after going quickly, tell his disciples, He was raised from the dead, and lo, he goes before you into Galilee. There ye will see him. Behold, I have told you.

⁸ And after coming out quickly from the sepulcher with fear and great joy, they ran to notify his disciples. ⁹ And as they were going to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus also met them, saying, Hail. And having come, they held his feet and worshiped him. ¹⁰ Then Jesus says to them, Fear not. Go notify my brothers that they should depart into Galilee, and there they will see me.

¹ And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, so that having come, they might anoint him. ² And very much early morning on the first day of the week, they come near to the sepulcher when the sun was risen. ³ And they said to themselves, Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the sepulcher? ⁴ And having looked, they see that the stone has been rolled back, for it was very large. ⁵ And having entered into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe, and they were alarmed.

⁶ And he says to them, Be not alarmed. Ye seek Jesus, the man of Nazareth who was crucified. He was raised. He is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him. ⁷ But go, tell his disciples and Peter, that he goes before you into Galilee. Ye will see him there, just as he said to you.

⁸ And having come out, they fled from the sepulcher, and trembling and astonishment seized them. And they said nothing to any man, for they were afraid.

¹ And on the first day of the week, very early morning, they came to the sepulcher bringing the spices that they prepared, and some women with them. ² And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulcher. ³ And having entered in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. ⁴ And it came to pass while they were bewildered about this, that behold, two men stood near them in shining apparel. ⁵ And since they became frightened and bowing down their face to the ground, they said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? ⁶ He is not here, but was raised. Remember how he spoke to you when he was still in Galilee, ⁷ saying that the Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day to rise. ⁸ And they remembered his sayings.

⁹ And having returned from the sepulcher, they reported all these things to the eleven, and to all the others. ¹⁰ Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles. ¹¹ And their sayings appeared before them as idle talk, and they disbelieved them. ¹² But having risen, Peter ran to the sepulcher. And having stooped down, he sees the linen cloths laying alone. And he departed, wondering to himself at that which happened.

¹ Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene comes early, while it was still darkness, to the sepulcher, and sees the stone taken away from the sepulcher. ² Therefore she runs and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and says to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulcher, and we know not where they have laid him.

³ Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they went toward the sepulcher. ⁴ And the two men ran together, and the other disciple ran ahead quicker than Peter and came first to the sepulcher. ⁵ And after stooping down, he sees the linen cloths lying, yet he entered not. ⁶ Simon Peter therefore comes following him, and he entered into the sepulcher. And he sees the linen cloths lying, ⁷ and the face cloth that was on his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but wrapped up in one place separately. ⁸ Therefore then the other disciple who came first to the sepulcher, also entered in, and he saw and believed. ⁹ For they had not yet known the scripture that he must rise from the dead.
