A  ¹ Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him. ² Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen. ³ And they said among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?” ⁴ But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away—for it was very large. ⁵ And entering the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed.

B ⁶ But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. 

C  He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.

B’  ⁷ But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you.”

A’  ⁸ So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

A: Entering, Perplexed and Afraid.
B: Seeking Jesus.
C: He is Risen!
B’: Finding and Seeing Jesus.
A’: Perplexed and Afraid.
