" After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, and going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. HIs appearence was like lightning, and his clothes were white as sonw. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.
The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucifed. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said."
From the Gospel According to Matthew 28, 1-6
