I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.He is not here! He has risen, just as he said he would! Come and see the place where he was lying.Go quickly! Tell his disciples,‘ He has risen from the dead. He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”So the women hurried away from the tomb. They were afraid, but they were filled with joy. They ran to tell the disciples.
