Matthew 28
28
The Son Is Risen!
1Now after Shabbat, as it began to dawn on the first day of the week, Miriam of Magdala and the other Miriam came to look at the tomb.
2And suddenly there was a great earthquake, for an angel of Adonai descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.
3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
4And those keeping watch were shaken for fear of him and became like dead men.
5But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know you are looking for Yeshua who was crucified.
6He is not here; for He is risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.
7Go quickly now and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead. And behold, He’s going before you to the Galilee. There you will see Him. See, I have told you!”
8They quickly left the tomb, with fear yet with great joy, and ran to bring news to His disciples.
The Good News Cannot Be Hidden
9And behold, Yeshua met them. “Shalom!” He said. They drew near, grasped his feet, and worshiped Him.
10“Don’t be afraid,” Yeshua said to them. “Go tell My brothers to head for the Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
11Now while they were going, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the ruling kohanim all that had happened.
12And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of silver to the soldiers,
13saying, “Tell them, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him away while we were sleeping.’
14And if this is heard by the governor, we’ll appease him and keep you out of trouble.”
15So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story was spread among the Judeans to this day.
Authority to Make Disciples Everywhere
16Now the eleven disciples went to the Galilee, to the mountain Yeshua had designated.
17When they saw Him, they worshiped; but some wavered.
18And Yeshua came up to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.
19Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Ruach ha-Kodesh,
20teaching them to observe all I have commanded you. And remember! 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
16The eleven disciples traveled to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had directed them.#Mt 26:32; 28:7 17When they saw him, they worshiped,#28:17 Other mss add him but some doubted. 18Jesus came near and said to them, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.#Dn 7:13–14; Jn 17:2; Rm 14:9; Eph 1:20–22; Php 2:9–10; Col 2:10; 1Pt 3:22 19Go, therefore, and make disciples#Mt 10:42; 28:19; Lk 14:26; Jn 8:31; 13:35; 15:8; Ac 6:1 of#28:19 Or and disciple all nations,#Mk 16:15; Lk 24:47 baptizing#Ac 2:38; 8:16 them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember,#28:20 Lit see I am with you always,#28:20 Lit all the days to the end of the age.”#Mt 13:39; 18:20; Ac 1:2; 2:42; 18:10
