{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.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
