Matthew 28
28
Jesus Is Risen!
1Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave. 2And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it. 3And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4The guards shook for fear of him and became like dead men. 5The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified. 6He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying. 7Go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going ahead of you into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”
8And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy and ran to report it to His disciples. 9And behold, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they came up and took hold of His feet and worshiped Him. 10Then Jesus *said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and take word to My brethren to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
11Now while they were on their way, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened. 12And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, 13and said, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.’ 14And if this should come to the governor’s ears, we will win him over and keep you out of trouble.” 15And they took the money and did as they had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews, and is to this day.
The Great Commission
16But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated. 17When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful. 18And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Resurrection Morning
1After the Sabbath,#Mk 16:1–8; Lk 24:1–10; Jn 20:1–8 as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to view the tomb. 2There was a violent earthquake, because an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and approached the tomb. He rolled back the stone and was sitting on it.#Lk 24:4; Jn 20:12 3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow.#Dn 7:9; 10:6; Mk 9:3; Jn 20:12; Ac 1:10 4The guards were so shaken by fear of him that they became like dead men.
5The angel told the women, “Don’t be afraid, because I know you are looking for Jesus who was crucified.#Mt 14:27; 28:10; Rv 1:17 6He is not here. For he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.#Mt 12:40; 16:21; 27:63 7Then go quickly and tell his disciples,#Mt 10:1; 26:56; Mk 3:7; 16:20; Lk 6:13; Jn 12:16 ‘He has risen from the dead and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; you will see him there.’ Listen, I have told you.”#Mt 26:32; Mk 16:7
8So, departing quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to tell his disciples the news. 9Just then#28:9 Other mss add as they were on their way to tell the news to his disciples Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” They came up, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.#Mk 16:9; Jn 20:14 10Then Jesus told them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to leave for Galilee, and they will see me there.”#Jn 20:17; Rm 8:29; Heb 2:11–12,17
The Soldiers Bribed to Lie
11As they were on their way, some of the guards came into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. 12After the priests#28:12 Lit After they had assembled with the elders and agreed on a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money 13and told them, “Say this, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him while we were sleeping.’ 14If this reaches the governor’s ears, we will deal with#28:14 Lit will persuade him and keep you out of trouble.”#Mt 27:2; Ac 12:20 15They took the money and did as they were instructed, and this story has been spread among Jewish people to this day.#Mt 9:31; 27:8; Mk 1:45
The Great Commission
