Matthew 28
28After the Sabbath, as Sunday morning was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.G1161G3796G4521G2020G1519G3391G4521G2064G3137G3094G2532G243G3137G2334G50282Suddenly there was a violent earthquake; an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled the stone away, and sat on it.G2532G2400G1096G3173G4578G1063G32G2962G2597G1537G3772G4334G617G3037G575G2374G2532G2521G1883G8463His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.G1161G846G2397G2258G5613G796G2532G846G1742G3022G5616G55104The guards were so afraid that they trembled and became like dead men.G1161G575G5401G846G5083G4579G2532G1096G5616G34985The angel spoke to the women. "You must not be afraid," he said. "I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.G1161G32G611G2036G1135G5399G3361G5210G1063G1492G3754G2212G2424G3588G47176He is not here; he has been raised, just as he said. Come here and see the place where he was lying.G2076G3756G5602G1063G1453G2531G2036G1205G1492G5117G3699G2962G27497Go quickly now, and tell his disciples, 'He has been raised from death, and now he is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see him!' Remember what I have told you."G2532G4198G5035G2036G846G3101G3754G1453G575G3498G2532G2400G4254G5209G1519G1056G1563G3700G846G2400G2036G52138So they left the tomb in a hurry, afraid and yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.G2532G1831G5035G575G3419G3326G5401G2532G3173G5479G5143G518G846G3101G5189Suddenly Jesus met them and said, "Peace be with you." They came up to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.G1161G5613G4198G518G846G3101G2532G2400G2424G528G846G3004G5463G1161G4334G2902G846G4228G2532G4352G84610"Do not be afraid," Jesus said to them. "Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me."G5119G3004G2424G846G5399G3361G5399G565G518G3450G80G2443G5217G1519G1056G2546G3700G316511While the women went on their way, some of the soldiers guarding the tomb went back to the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened.G1161G846G4198G2400G5100G2892G2064G1519G4172G518G749G537G109612The chief priests met with the elders and made their plan; they gave a large sum of money to the soldiersG2532G4863G3326G4245G5037G2983G4824G1325G2425G694G475713and said, "You are to say that his disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep.G3004G2036G3754G846G3101G2064G3571G2813G846G2257G283714And if the Governor should hear of this, we will convince him that you are innocent, and you will have nothing to worry about."G2532G1437G5124G191G1909G2232G191G2249G3982G846G2532G275G4160G520915The guards took the money and did what they were told to do. And so that is the report spread around by the Jews to this very day.G1161G2983G694G4160G5613G1321G2532G3778G3056G1310G3844G2453G3360G459416The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go.G1161G1733G3101G4198G1519G1056G1519G3735G3757G2424G5021G84617When they saw him, they worshiped him, even though some of them doubted.G2532G1492G846G4352G846G1161G136518Jesus drew near and said to them, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth.G2532G2424G4334G2980G846G3004G3956G1849G1325G3427G1722G3772G2532G1909G109319Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,G4198G3767G3100G3956G1484G907G846G1519G3686G3962G2532G5207G2532G40G415120and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age."G1321G846G5083G3956G3745G1781G5213G2532G2400G1473G1510G3326G5216G3956G2250G2193G4930G165G281
