Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. . . . But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid; I know that you are looking for Jesus Who was crucified. He is not here; for He has been raised, as He said. Come, see the place where He lay. Then go quickly and tell His disciples, ‘He has been raised from the dead.’”
Matthew 28: 1b, 5 – 7a NRSV.
