Jesus Christ » History of » Arises from the dead (just outside jerusalem)
now there had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the lord descending from heaven, was come, and had rolled away the stone from the door, and was sitting upon it. his aspect was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow. for fear of whom the keepers shook, and were almost struck dead. read more.
but the angel spoke to the woman, and said, don't be frighted, I know you are seeking Jesus, who was crucified. he is not here: he is risen according to his word: come, see the place where the Lord was laid. then go immediately to tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and that, he goes before you into Galilee, there shall ye see it is him; 'tis I that say it. And they instantly left the sepulchre, with fear and joy, and ran to carry his disciples this good news. as they were making the way to his disciples, Jesus himself met them, and said, I salute you. and they came, and embraced his feet, and worshipped him. then said Jesus to them, be not afraid: go bid my brethren repair to Galilee, and there shall they see me. Now when they were gone, some of the guards went into the city, and informed the chief priests of all that had happened. and when they were assembled with the senators, and had consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, thus instructing them; do you say "his disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. if this come to the governor's ears, we will appease him, and secure you." so they took the money, and did as they were directed: and this report is still current among the Jews at this day.

When the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, after having bought aromatic drugs to embalm him, went to the sepulchre very early in the morning, the first day of the week, at sun-rising. and they said to one another, who will remove the stone from the mouth of the sepulchre for us? read more.
(for it was very great.) but when they were near in view, they perceiv'd that the stone was roll'd away. upon their entring into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting towards the right, cloathed in a long white garment: at which they were frighted. but he said to them, don't be frightned: you look for Jesus the Nazarene: he is risen, he is not here: see the place where he lay. go, tell Peter and the rest of his disciples, that he is gone before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he foretold you. at this they started out, and fled from the sepulchre in a violent consternation, without speaking a word to any by the way: they were so frighted. Now Jesus being risen early on the first day of the week, he appear'd first to Mary Magdalene, whom he had dispossess'd of seven demons. immediately she went to those who frequented Jesus, and were then bemoaning themselves in tears, and acquainted them with it. but though they heard that he was alive, and had appear'd to her, they did not believe.

On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they went to the sepulchre with the spices they had provided, accompanied by several others. and having found that the stone had been remov'd from the sepulchre, they entred in, but did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. read more.
whilst they were in great perplexity about it, all of a sudden, two men appear'd before them in robes of light. upon which they were frightned, and bowed themselves to the very ground: but the men said to them, why do you look among the dead for one that is alive? he is not here, but is risen: remember what he told you, when he was yet in Galilee, that the son of man must be deliver'd into the hands of sinful men; be crucified; and the third day rise again. then they remembred his words; and upon their return from the sepulchre, they related the whole matter to the eleven, and all the other disciples. it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and others with them, who gave the apostles this relation: which however appear'd to them such a delirious tale, they could not give credit to any of them. yet Peter got up, and ran to the sepulchre, where stooping down he saw nothing but the linnen lying there: upon which he went away wondring with himself at such an event.

The first day of the week early in morning Mary Magdalene, when it was yet dusky, came to the sepulchre, and found the stone was taken away from the sepulchre. upon this she went in great haste to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, they have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. Peter immediately departed, and that other disciple, to go to the sepulchre. read more.
they both set out together: but the other disciple out-ran Peter, and came first to the cave, where stooping down he saw the linen clothes lying; but did not go in. Simon Peter who followed him, being come, went into the cave, and saw the linen clothes lying there; as for the napkin that had been put about his head, it was not in the same place as the linen clothes, but lay folded up by it self. then the other disciple, who arriv'd first, went into the cave likewise, and he saw, and believed what Mary had said. for as yet they did not understand from the scripture, that he was to rise again from the dead. After this the disciples return'd to their own home. but Mary stood at the entrance of the cave weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down to look into the sepulchre, and saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, the one at the head, the other at the feet. and they said to her, woman, why do you weep? "because, said she, they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him." having thus said, she turned about, and saw Jesus standing, but knew not that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, woman, why do you weep? who do you look for? she supposing him to be the gardener, said to him, sir, if it be you that have convey'd him away; tell me where you have laid him, and I will take care to have him remov'd. Jesus said to her, Mary! she bowing her self, cry'd rabboni! that is to say, master! Jesus said to her, touch me not: for I am not yet ascended to my father: but go to my brethren, and say to them, "I ascend unto my father and your father, even my God and your God." so Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples, that she had seen the Lord, and that he had said these things to her.
