The Bible story in Matthew 28: 1 - 8, Mark 16: 1 - 8, Luke 24: 1 - 8 en John 20: 1 of the women going to the tomb tells of the aftermath of Jesus' burial and the astonishing discovery that he had risen from the dead. On the third day after Jesus' crucifixion, Mary Magdalene and other women went to the tomb to anoint Jesus' body with spices.
When they arrived, they found that the stone blocking the entrance had been rolled away and the tomb was empty. An angel appeared to them and told them that Jesus had risen from the dead. The women were filled with amazement and joy and ran to tell the disciples what they had seen.
