Luke 24:1-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

Jesus Comes Back to Life^(A)

24 Very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb. They were carrying the spices that they had prepared. ² They found that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb. ³ When they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. ⁴ While they were puzzled about this, two men in clothes that were as bright as lightning suddenly stood beside them. ⁵ The women were terrified and bowed to the ground.

The men asked the women, “Why are you looking among the dead for the living one? ⁶ He’s not here. He has been brought back to life! Remember what he told you while he was still in Galilee. ⁷ He said, ‘The Son of Man must be handed over to sinful people, be crucified, and come back to life on the third day.’ ”
