Eight stained glass windows in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Vincent de Paul in Albany, New York depict events in the life of Jesus Christ. The last portrays The Resurrection.<\/p>\n

This scene shows Jesus rising from the tomb, the guards terrified, and the angel who would announce the resurrection to those who would visit the tomb later. Note the marks from the nails in Jesus’ hands and feet.<\/p>\n

{28:1} Now on the morning of the Sabbath, when it began to grow light on the first Sabbath, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the sepulcher.
\n{28:2} And behold, a great earthquake occurred. For an Angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and as he approached, he rolled back the stone and sat down on it.
\n{28:3} Now his appearance was like lightning, and his vestment was like snow.
\n{28:4} Then, out of fear of him, the guards were terrified, and they became like dead men.
\n{28:5} Then the Angel responded by saying to the women: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do not be afraid. For I know that you are seeking Jesus, who was crucified.
\n{28:6} He is not here. For he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where the Lord was placed.
\n{28:7} And then, go quickly, and tell his disciples that he has risen. And behold, he will precede you to Galilee. There you shall see him. Lo, I have told you beforehand.\u201d
\n{28:8} And they went out of the tomb quickly, with fear and in great joy, running to announce it to his disciples.
\n{28:9} And behold, Jesus met them, saying, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Hail.\u201d But they drew near and took hold of his feet, and they adored him.
\n{28:10} Then Jesus said to them: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do not be afraid. Go, announce it to my brothers, so that they may go to Galilee. There they shall see me.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
