| On the first day of the week, very early in the morning,
the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They
found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they
did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about
this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside
them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground,
but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead?
He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still
with you in Galilee: 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of
sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " Then
they remembered his words. Luke 24; 1-8 (RSV)
