But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb,
taking the spices that they had prepared. They found the stone rolled away
from the tomb, but when they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord
Jesus. While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men in dazzling
clothes stood beside them. The women were terrified and bowed their faces to
the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among
the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he
was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be handed over to sinners, and
be crucified, and on the third day rise again." Then they remembered his
words, and returning from the tomb, they told all this to the eleven and to
all the rest. Now it was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and
the other women with them who told this to the apostles. But these words
seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them. But Peter got up
and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by
themselves; then he went home, amazed at what had happened.
