The Resurrection

A severe earthquake occurred in Jerusalem and an angel rolled the stone away from the tomb of Jesus, Matthew 28:2. Jesus had conquered death. He was resurrected ... spiritually and physically made alive again, Matthew 28:9, Luke 24:39, and Luke 24:41-43.

The discovery

The women (Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, Salome, Joanna, and others) came to the tomb with spices to anoint His body. They found the tomb open and empty. Two angels appeared to them and told them, "He is not here, but He has risen." Luke 24:5. Mary Magdalene and the others returned to tell Peter and John . . . who came to the tomb.
