a) After the Sabbath, towards dawn on the first day of the week, Marry Magdalene and the other Mary went to the tomb to anoint Jesus with spices. There was an earthquake, as an angel rolled away the stone covering the tomb and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning. For fear of him, the guards trembled and froze up like dead men. The women were wondering who would roll away the stone for them, but when they looked up, they saw that it had been rolled away already. When they entered, they saw a young man in dazzling white who told them not to be amazed for he knew they were looking for the crucified Jesus. "He has risen, he is not here ,see the place where they had laid him. Go and tell Peter and the others that he had gone to Galilee ahead of them they should go there to meet him. They fled from the tomb with fear and joy to inform his disciples, but, the disciples disbelieved them. On their way, Jesus met them and hailed them. Jesus asked them not to be afraid but to go and tell his disciples to meet him in Galilee.
