Read in context

Matthew 28:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 The guards trembled in fear of him and became like dead men.

5 But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

6 He is not here; He has risen, just as He said! Come, see the place where He lay.

7 Then go quickly and tell His disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see Him.’ See, I have told you.”

8 So they hurried away from the tomb in fear and great joy, and ran to tell His disciples.
