Jesus is Not Here
Easter Sunday
1 When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of
James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.
2 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they
went to the tomb.
3 They had been saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away the stone for us
from the entrance to the tomb?’
4 When they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had
already been rolled back.
5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man, dressed in a white robe,
sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.
6 But he said to them, ‘Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of
Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. Look, there
is the place they laid him.
7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee;
there you will see him, just as he told you.’
8 So they went out and fled from the tomb, for terror and amazement had
seized them; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
