Matthew
Chapter 28

28:1       {Mar 16:1-8 & Mat 28:1-8 & Luk 24:1-8, 12 & Joh 20:1-10 Dawn and very early Sun.}       Now after the Sabbath {or: week} , to the dawning toward the first daylight of the week, Mary the Magdalene and the other Mary came to view the burial chamber.

28:2 And behold, a great earthquake happened; for* a messenger of the Lord descended out-of heaven, who came near and rolled away the stone from the door and was sitting upon it.

28:3 His form was like lightning and his clothing was white like snow;

28:4 and the ones guarding the door, were shaken from the fear of him and became like dead men.      

28:5 Now the messenger answered and said to the women, Do° not be afraid; for* I know that you° are seeking Jesus, who has been crucified.

28:6 He is not here; for* he was raised, just-as he said. Come-here°, behold° the place where the Lord was laying.

28:7 And traveling quickly, say° to his disciples, He was raised from the dead, and behold, he is preceding you° into Galilee; you° will be seeing him there. Behold, I have said this to you°.      

28:8 And they went forth quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy and ran to report to his disciples.       {Mar 16:9-11 & Mat 28:9-10 & Luk 24:9-11 & Joh 20:11-18.}      

28:9 Now as they were traveling to also report it to his disciples, behold, Jesus encountered them, saying, Rejoice°! But they came and took-hold of his feet and worshiped him.

28:10 Then Jesus says to them, Do° not be afraid. Proceed-away°; report° to my brethren in-order-that they might go into Galilee and they will be seeing me there.       {Mat 28:11-15 Sun. Morning; no parallel.}      

28:11 Now while they are traveling, behold, some of the sentry came into the city and reported to the high-priests all the things which had happened.

28:12 And they gathered together-with the elders and took council and, they gave a considerable amount of silver to the soldiers,

28:13 saying, Say°: the disciples stole him from us, after they came from the night while being fallen-asleep {i.e., while sleeping} .

28:14 And if this thing is heard of over at the governor, we will be persuading him and will be making* you° carefree.

28:15 They took the silver and they did* like they were taught and this speech was broadcasted with the Jews and is continuing till this day.       {Mat 28:16-17 & 1Co 15:6 Mountain in Galilee.}      

28:16 But the eleven disciples traveled into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had appointed to them.

28:17 And they saw him and worshiped him, but they were skeptical.       {Mar 16:15-18 & Mat 28:18-20 & Luk 24:46-47 Mountain in Galilee; The Great Commission.}      

28:18 And Jesus came near and spoke to them, saying, All authority was given to me in heaven and upon earth.      

28:19 While traveling, make° disciples of all the nations, immersing* them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

28:20 teaching them to observe all things, as many things as I commanded you°, and behold, I am with you° all the days until the end of the world.      Amen.       {NOTES: Please read the Preface and other non-bible sections. * is our universal footnoting for words contained in the ‘Definitions’ section. These words are NOT the same Greek word as the non-asterisk form; i.e., *FOR is different from FOR* is different from FOR. ° (degree sign) denotes plural forms.}
