3rd Sunday in February
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 28:1-20

Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary
Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave. And behold, a severe earthquake
had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled
away the stone and sat upon it. And his appearance was like lightning, and his
garment as white as snow; and the guards shook for fear of him, and became like
dead men.

And the angel answered and said to the women, "Do not be afraid; for I know that
you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified. He is not here, for He has risen,
just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying. And go quickly and tell
His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going before you
into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you." And they departed
quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy and ran to report it to His disciples.

And behold, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they came up and took hold of His
feet and worshiped Him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and take
word to My brethren to leave for Galilee, and there they shall see Me." Now while
they were on their way, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported
to the chief priests all that had happened. And when they had assembled with the
elders and counseled together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers,
and said, "You are to say, 'His disciples came by night and stole Him away while
we were asleep.' And if this should come to the governor's ears, we will win him
over and keep you out of trouble." And they took the money and did as they had been
instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews, and is to this day.
But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had
designated. And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him but some were doubtful.

And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me
in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to
observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end
of the age." Matthew 28:1-20 (NAS)

Easy-to-Read Version:

The day after the Sabbath day was the first day of the week. At dawn on the first
day, Mary Magdalene and the other woman named Mary went to look at the tomb. At
that time there was a very strong earthquake. An angel of the Lord came from the
sky. The angel went to the tomb and rolled the stone away from the entrance. Then
the angel sat on the stone. The angel was shining very bright like lightning. His
clothes were white like snow. The soldiers guarding the tomb were very afraid of
the angel. They shook with fear and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, "Don't be afraid. I know that you are looking for Jesus,
the one that was killed on the cross. But Jesus is not here. He has risen from death,
like he said he would. Come and see the place where his body was. And go quickly
and tell his followers. Tell them: 'Jesus has risen from death. He is going into
Galilee. He will be there before you. You will see him there.' " Then the angel
said, "Now I have told you." So the women left the tomb quickly. They were afraid,
but they were also very happy. They ran to tell his followers what happened.

While the women were running to tell the followers, Jesus was standing there before
them. Jesus said, "Hello!" The women went to Jesus. They held him at his feet and
worshiped him. Then Jesus said to the women, "Don't be afraid. Go and tell my brothers
(followers) to go to Galilee. They will see me there." The women went to tell the
followers. At the same time, some of the soldiers that were guarding the tomb went
into the city. They went to tell the leading priests everything that happened. Then
the priests met with the older Jewish leaders and made a plan. They paid the soldiers
much money [to tell a lie]. They said to the soldiers, "Tell the people that Jesus'
followers came during the night and stole the body while you were sleeping. If the
governor hears about this, we will satisfy him and save you from trouble." So the
soldiers kept the money and obeyed the priests. And that story is still spread among
the Jews even today. The eleven followers went to Galilee. They went to the mountain
where Jesus told them to go. On the mountain the followers saw Jesus. They worshiped
him. But some of the followers did not believe that it was really Jesus.

So Jesus came to them and said, "All authority (power) in heaven and on earth is
given to me. So go and make followers of all people in the world. Baptize them
in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach those people to
obey everything that I have told you. You can be sure that I will be with you always.
I will continue with you until the end of the world." Matthew 28:1-20
