RESURRECTED (MATT. 28:1-4)

listen for reactions and responses by various people at the tomb of Jesus.

1 After the Sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning,
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to view the tomb.

2 There was a violent earthquake, because an angel of the Lord descended from heaven
and approached the tomb. He rolled back the stone and was sitting on it.
3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing was as white as snow.
4 The guards were so shaken by fear of him that they became like dead men.

SEARCH:

Mary Magdalene and the other Mary,
the angel, and
the guards.

TRANSITION:

Mary Magdalene and the other Mary visited Jesus’s tomb
to anoint His body—but instead they discovered the empty tomb
that attests to His resurrection.
