What happensPermalink
The three women return to the tomb to find two angels who tell them Jesus has risen, and they tell the other disciples. Jesus appears on the road to Emmaus, then to all the disciples, opening their minds and commissioning them.
Why it mattersPermalink
The three women are the first evangelists, telling the story of the risen Christ. Jesus opens His disciples’ minds, giving them supernatural understanding of Christ’s position in creation.
Key versePermalink
“See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.”
