# Matthew 28
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it.
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you.”
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sufficient sum of money to the soldiers
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. and said, “Tell people, His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. And if this comes to the governors ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story has been spread among the Jews to this day.
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
16. Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them.
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
17. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted.
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
18. And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
19. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
20. teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
