Luke 24:1-7

The empty tomb

1 Very early in the morning on the first day of the week, the women went to the tomb, bringing the fragrant spices they had prepared.
2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
3 but when they went in, they didn't find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 They didn't know what to make of this. Suddenly, two men were standing beside them in gleaming bright clothing.
5 The women were frightened and bowed their faces toward the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead?
6 He isn't here, but has been raised. Remember what he told you while he was still in Galilee,
7 that the Human One must be handed over to sinners, be crucified, and on the third day rise again."
