Mattithyahu (Matthew) 28
28
1But late in the sabbath,#Greek: Sabbaths as it was dawning into day one of the week,#Greek: one of the sabbaths. See Explanatory Notes "First Day of the Week" and also Mark 16:2; Luke 24:1; 1 Cor. 16:2 Miryam from Maḡdala and the other Miryam came to see the tomb.
2And see, there was a great earthquake, for a messenger of יהוה came down out of heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.
3And his appearance was like lightning, and his garments as white as snow.
4And the guards trembled for fear of him, and became like dead men.
5And the messenger responding, said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek יהושע who was impaled.
6“He is not here, for He was raised, as He said. Come, see the place where the Master lay.
7“And go quickly, say to His taught ones that He was raised from the dead, and see, He is going before you to Galil. There you shall see Him. See, I have told you.”
8And they left the tomb quickly, with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His taught ones.
9And as they were going to report to His taught ones, see, יהושע met them, saying, “Greetings!” And they came and held Him by the feet and did bow to Him.
10Then יהושע said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go, report to My brothers, to go to Galil, and they shall see Me there.”
11And while they were going, see, some of the watch having gone into the city, reported to the chief priests all that took place.
12And when they had come together with the elders and taken counsel, they gave enough silver to the soldiers,
13saying, “Say that His taught ones came at night and stole Him away while we slept.
14And if this should be reported to the governor, we shall win him over and keep you out of trouble.
15And having taken the silver they did as they were instructed. And this account was widely spread among the Yehuḏim, to this day.
16And the eleven taught ones went away into Galil, to the mountain which יהושע had appointed for them.
17And when they saw Him, they bowed to Him, but some doubted.
18And יהושע came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
19Therefore, go and make taught ones of all the nations, immersing them in the Name#Note the singular of the Father and of the Son and of the Set-apart Spirit,#Not found in the Hebrew Shem Toḇ text,” ...and make taught ones of all the nations, immersing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Set-apart Spirit.”
20teaching them to guard all that I have commanded you. And see, I am with you always, until the end of the age.” Amĕn.

Jesus Is Alive
(Mark 16.1-8; Luke 24.1-12; John 20.1-10)
1The Sabbath was over, and it was almost daybreak on Sunday when Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 2Suddenly a strong earthquake struck, and the Lord's angel came down from heaven. He rolled away the stone and sat on it. 3The angel looked as bright as lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4The guards shook from fear and fell down, as though they were dead.
5The angel said to the women, “Don't be afraid! I know you are looking for Jesus, who was nailed to a cross. 6He isn't here! God has raised him to life, just as Jesus said he would. Come, see the place where his body was lying. 7Now hurry! Tell his disciples he has been raised to life and is on his way to Galilee. Go there, and you will see him. This is what I came to tell you.”
8The women were frightened and yet very happy, as they hurried from the tomb and ran to tell his disciples. 9Suddenly Jesus met them and greeted them. They went near him, held on to his feet, and worshiped him. 10Then Jesus said, “Don't be afraid! Tell my followers to go to Galilee. They will see me there.”
Report of the Guard
11While the women were on their way, some soldiers who had been guarding the tomb went into the city. They told the chief priests everything that had happened. 12So the chief priests met with the leaders and decided to bribe the soldiers with a lot of money. 13They said to the soldiers, “Tell everyone that Jesus' disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep. 14If the governor#28.14 governor: Pontius Pilate. hears about this, we will talk to him. You won't have anything to worry about.” 15The soldiers took the money and did what they were told. The people of Judea still tell each other this story.
What Jesus' Followers Must Do
(Mark 16.14-18; Luke 24.36-49; John 20.19-23; Acts 1.6-8)
16 #
Mt 26.32; Mk 14.28. Jesus' eleven disciples went to a mountain in Galilee, where Jesus had told them to meet him. 17They saw him and worshiped him, but some of them doubted.
18Jesus came to them and said:
I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth! 19#Ac 1.8. Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, 20and teach them to do everything I have told you. I will be with you always, even until the end of the world.
