Jesus Rises From the Dead
1When the Sabbath day was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices to put on Jesus’ body. 2They went to the tomb very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise. On the way 3they were asking each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance to the tomb?”
4But as they approached, they could see that the stone, even though it was very large, had already been rolled away. 5When they went into the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were distressed.
6“Don’t be distressed,” he said. “You’re looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He’s not here! He has risen! Look, this is where his body was. 7Go tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He’s going ahead of you into Galilee and you’ll see him there, just as he told you.’ ”
8But the women were shaking so hard and they were so amazed that they left the tomb and ran away. They didn’t say anything to anyone, because they were afraid.
9When Jesus rose from the dead early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene. (He had driven seven demons out of her.) 10She went to tell those who’d been with him, and she found them mourning and crying. 11When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she’d seen him, they didn’t believe it.
12After that, Jesus appeared to two of them while they were walking out in the country. They didn’t recognize him at first because he didn’t look the way they expected. 13The two returned and told the others about it, but the others didn’t believe them.
14Later Jesus appeared to the 11 disciples as they were eating. He had strong words for them for being so unbelieving and hard-hearted. He told them they should have believed the people who’d seen him after he rose from the dead.
15But then he said to them, “Go everywhere in the world and preach the good news to the whole creation. 16Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved, but anyone who doesn’t believe will be condemned. 17Those who believe will do miraculous signs. They’ll drive out demons in my name, and they’ll speak in new tongues. 18They’ll pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink deadly poison, it won’t hurt them at all. When they will place their hands on sick people, the sick will get well.”
19When the Lord Jesus had finished speaking to them, he was taken up into heaven, where he sat down at the right hand of God. 20Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them, confirming his word by the signs that occurred with it.

Mark 16

Mt 28.1-8; Lk 24.1-10; Jn 20.1-2. #Lk 23.56; Jn 19.39. And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him. 2And very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb when the sun had risen. 3And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?” 4And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back—it was very large. 5And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed. 6And he said to them, “Do not be amazed; you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen, he is not here; see the place where they laid him. 7#Mk 14.28; Jn 21.1-23; Mt 28.7. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you.” 8And they went out and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid.
9Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10She went out and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept. 11But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.
12After this he appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country. 13And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe them.
14Afterward he appeared to the eleven themselves as they sat at table; and he upbraided them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. 15And he said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation. 16He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
19So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20And they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by the signs that attended it. Amen.#16.20 Some of the most ancient authorities bring the book to a close at the end of verse 8. One authority concludes the book by adding after verse 8 the following: But they reported briefly to Peter and those with him all that they had been told. And after this, Jesus himself sent out by means of them, from east to west, the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation. Other authorities include the preceding passage and continue with verses 9-20. In most authorities verses 9-20 follow immediately after verse 8; a few authorities insert additional material after verse 14
