1
Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, 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 descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.
3
His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
4
And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men.
5
But the angel answered and said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
6
He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7
And go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead, and indeed He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him. Behold, I have told you."
8
So they went out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring His disciples word.
