The Resurrection of Jesus24But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices that they had prepared.2They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,3but when they went in they did not find the body.4While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men in dazzling clothes stood beside them.5The womenwere terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, but the mensaid to them, Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here but has risen.6Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,7that the Son of Man must be handed over to the hands of sinners and be crucified and on the third day rise again.8Then they remembered his words,9and returning from the tomb they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest.
