When the Sabbath was
over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that
they might go to anoint Jesus' body. Very early on the first day of the week,
just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each
other, "Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?" But when
they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled
away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe
sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. "Don't be alarmed," he said.
"You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is
not here. See the place where they laid him.
