1 Now 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.
2 And 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.
3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
4 And those keeping watch were shaken for fear of him and became like dead men.
5 But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know you are looking for Yeshua who was crucified.
6 He is not here; for He is risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.
7 Go 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!”
8 They quickly left the tomb, with fear yet with great joy, and ran to bring news to His disciples.
9 And 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.”
11 Now while they were going, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the ruling kohanim all that had happened.
12 And when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of silver to the soldiers,
13 saying, “Tell them, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him away while we were sleeping.’
14 And if this is heard by the governor, we’ll appease him and keep you out of trouble.”
15 So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story was spread among the Judeans to this day.
16 Now the eleven disciples went to the Galilee, to the mountain Yeshua had designated.
17 When they saw Him, they worshiped; but some wavered.
18 And Yeshua came up to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Ruach ha-Kodesh,
20 teaching them to observe all I have commanded you. And remember! I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
