Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 22:12
1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
An angel of the Lord rolled back the stone that closed the tomb, and sat on it. [3]
3His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
4And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
He's not here. He rose from the dead as he said.Come see the place where his body was lying. [4]
7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.
Go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead.He has gone to Galilee. You'll see him there.
I have told you so.
8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
Hi, you all.And they grabbed him by his feet and worshiped him. [6]
10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
Don't be afraid. Tell my brothers to go to Galilee and they'll see me there. [7]
11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
Jesus's disciples came and stole his body while we slept.
14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.
15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
The Jews are still talking about this today. [8]
16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 And when they saw him,they worshipped him: but some doubted.
But some doubted. [10]
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
All power has been given to me in heaven and on earth. [11]
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
So go teach all nations [11], baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Teaching them to obey whatever I have commanded you.I'm with you always, even until the end of the world. Amen.
A great earthquake! (See 27:51 for another.)
Whom did they see at the tomb?
Were the men or angels inside or outside the tomb when first seen?
Since "feet" is often a biblical euphemism for genitals, then maybe....
To whom did Jesus first appear?
Did Mary Magdalene recognize Jesus?
Was it OK to touch the risen Jesus?
Was Mary Magdalene happy or sad when she saw the risen Jesus?
Once again (see also 27:8), the phrase "until this day"; implies that the gospel of Matthew was not written until long after the events supposedly occurred.
How many disciples did Jesus appear to in his first post resurrection appearance?
Even some of Jesus' apostles doubted that the allegedly risen Christ was really Jesus. Well if they weren't sure, how could we ever be?
I’ve been comparing the 4 resurrection accounts, and I think I found another discrepancy. Its when the women discovered Jesus’s body was missing. In Matthew and Mark it’s after the angel(s) talk to the women, but in Luke and John it’s before.
In Matthew 28:5-6, an angel appears and tells the women to see the place where Jesus was laid. A similar thing happens in Mark 16:5-6, except the women were inside the tomb when they were told.
But in Luke 24:3-4, the women enter the tomb on their own accord and discover the tomb is empty. Then, while they’re still perplexed about what happened, two men (angels) suddenly appear before them. And in John 20:1-2 Mary discovers Jesus’s body is missing before the angels appear to her.
Thanks for the suggestion, SandColoredSky.
I've added When did the women discover that Jesus's body was missing? to the contradictions.
