Matthew 28
1 After the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary of Magdala and the other Mary had gone to look at the grave,
Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn on the first day of the week, Miriam Magdalene and the other Miriam came to see the tomb.
2 when suddenly a great earthquake occurred. For an angel of the Lord descended from Heaven, and came and rolled away the stone, and seated himself upon it.
Behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from the sky and came and rolled away the stone from the door and sat on it.
3 His appearance was as dazzling as lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow;
His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
4 and, in their terror of him, the men on guard trembled violently and became like dead men.
For fear of him, the guards shook, and became like dead men.
5 But the angel, addressing the women, said; “You need not be afraid. I now that it is Jesus, who was crucified, for whom you are looking.
The angel answered the women, “Don’t be afraid, for I know that you seek Yeshua, who has been crucified.
6 He is not here; for he has risen, as he said he would. Come, and see the place where he was lying;
He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where the Lord was lying.
7 and then go quickly and say to him disciples ‘He has risen from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him.’ Remember, I have told you.”
Go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead, and behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.’ Behold, I have told you.”
8 On this they left the tomb quickly, in awe and great joy, and ran to tell the news to the disciples.
They departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring his disciples word.
9 Suddenly Jesus met them. “Welcome!” he said. The women went up to him, and clasped his feet, bowing to the ground before him. Then Jesus said to them:
As they went to tell his disciples, behold, Yeshua met them, saying, “Rejoice!” They came and took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.
10 “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to set out for Galilee, and they shall see me there.”
Then Yeshua said to them, “Don’t be afraid. Go tell my brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me.”
11 While they were still on their way, some of the guard came into the city, and reported to the Chief Priests everything that had happened.
Now while they were going, behold, some of the guards came into the city and told the chief priests all the things that had happened.
12 So they and the Councillors met and, after holding a consultation, gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,
When they were assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of silver to the soldiers,
13 and told them to say that his disciples came in the night, and stole him while they were asleep;
saying, “Say that his disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept.
14 “And should this matter come before the Governor,” they added, “we will satisfy him, and see that you have nothing to fear.”
If this comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him and make you free of worry.”
15 So the soldiers took the money, and did as they were instructed. And this story has been current among the Jews from that day to this.
So they took the money and did as they were told. This saying was spread abroad among the Judeans, and continues until today.
16 The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus told them to meet him;
But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Yeshua had sent them.
17 and, when they saw him, they bowed to the ground before him; although some felt doubtful.
When they saw him, they bowed down to him; but some doubted.
18 Then Jesus came up, and spoke to them thus: “All authority in heaven and on the earth has been given to me.
Yeshua came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the Faith of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
Go and make disciples of all nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
