Matthew 28
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the sepulcher at the end of the sabbath in the dusk of the next day. The angel of the Lord had descended from heaven and rolled back the stone and sat on it. Because His face was like lightening and His clothing white as snow, those who kept the sepulcher shook with fear and became like dead men.
To the Mary’s the angel said, "He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.... Tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead; and, behold, He goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see Him: lo, I have told you." On the way to tell the disciples, they met Jesus, who greeted them, saying, "All hail." They came and held Him by the feet and worshipped Him.
Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain where Jesus had told them He would meet them. When they saw Him, they worshipped, but some doubted. He told them, "All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world [age]. Amen."
