Matthew 28
1¶ Now well along on the sabbath, as it began to dawn on the first of the sabbaths, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2And, behold, there was a great earthquake, for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone from the door and sat upon it.
3His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow;
4and for fear of him the guards shook and became as dead men.
5And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye, for I know that ye seek Jesus, who was crucified.
6He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
7And go quickly and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there ye shall see him; behold, I have told you.
8And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy and ran to bring his disciples word.
9And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, Receive joy. And they came and held him by the feet and worshipped him.
10Then Jesus said unto them, Be not afraid; go tell my brothers that they may go into Galilee, and there they shall see me.
11¶ Now when they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
12And when they were assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of money to the soldiers,
13saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept.
14And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him and make you secure.
15So they took the money and did as they were taught, and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
16¶ Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17And when they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted.
18And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and, behold, I am with you always even unto the end of the age. Amen.

The Resurrection
(Mk 16.1–10; Lk 24.1–12; Jn 20.1–10)
1After the Sabbath, as Sunday morning was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. 2Suddenly there was a violent earthquake; an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled the stone away, and sat on it. 3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4The guards were so afraid that they trembled and became like dead men.
5The angel spoke to the women. “You must not be afraid,” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6He is not here; he has been raised, just as he said. Come here and see the place where he was lying. 7Go 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.”
8So they left the tomb in a hurry, afraid and yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
9Suddenly Jesus met them and said, “Peace be with you.” They came up to him, took hold of his feet, and worshipped him. 10“Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to them. “Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
The Report of the Guard
11While 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. 12The chief priests met with the elders and made their plan; they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers 13and said, “You are to say that his disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep. 14And if the Governor should hear of this, we will convince him that you are innocent, and you will have nothing to worry about.”
15The guards took the money and did what they were told to do. And so that is the report spread round by the Jews to this very day.
Jesus Appears to his Disciples
(Mk 16.14–18; Lk 24.36–49; Jn 20.19–23; Acts 1.6–8)
16 #
Mt 26.32; Mk 14.28 The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. 17When they saw him, they worshipped him, even though some of them doubted. 18Jesus drew near and said to them, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19#Acts 1.8Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, 20and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age.”
