Matthew - Chapter 28

1 And in the evening of Shabbat as it was dusk, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Miriam of Magdala and the other Miriam came so that they could see the sepulchre. 2 And behold! There was a great earthquake, for an angel of Mar-Yah descended from heaven, and came and rolled away the boulder from the entrance, and he was sitting upon it. 3 And his appearance was like the lightning, and his clothing was white like snow; 4 and from being afraid of him the guards were in shock, and became like the dead. 5 But the angel answered, and said to the women: "Do not have fear, for I know that you seek Yeshua who was crucified. 6 He is not here; for he has risen, as he said. Come see the place where Maran was laid. 7 Go now, quickly! Tell his talmidim, that he has risen from the dead; and behold! He will be before you to Galil; there you will see him. Behold, I have told you."

8 And they quickly left from the sepulchre with fear and with great joy, and they were running so that they might tell his talmidim. 9 And behold! Yeshua met them, and said to them: "Shalom Aleichem! And they drew near to him and grabbed hold of his feet, and worshipped him. 10 Then Yeshua said to them: "Do not be afraid; but go, tell my brothers, to go to Galil, and there they will see me."

11 And when they left, some of the guards came to the city, and told the chief priests everything that had occurred. 12 And they assembled with the elders, and they took council; and they gave to the guards no small amount of money, 13 and they said to them: "Say: ‘His talmidim came and stole him during the night, while we were sleeping.' 14 And if the governor should hear this, we will pacify him, and keep you from being troubled." 15 And after they took the money, they did as they were instructed. And this word is spoken of among the Judeans to this day.

16 Now the eleven talmidim went to Galil, to the mountain where Yeshua had instructed them to be. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him, but some were sceptical. 18 And Yeshua drew near to them, and spoke with them, and said to them: "All authority has been given to me, in heaven and on earth. And as my Father sent me, I send you. 19 Go, therefore, and make talmidim all the gentiles; and baptise them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 20 And teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And, behold! I am with you all the days until the end of the world." Amen.
