THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW Part 88: Jesus is Alive

1 month ago
21

The apostles were shocked when Jesus informed them that He would be betrayed to the chief priests and killed by the Romans. None of the men were curious to visit the tomb on the third day and it was the women who discovered holy angels in glowing white clothes and an empty grave.

The angels questioned why they sought the living among the dead? Jesus had risen just as He predicted and would meet the apostles in Galilee where it all began some three years earlier. It was bittersweet leaving the tomb with the Messiah’s apparent resurrection, but at the same time, the women were filled with apprehension that it might be hoax. Nevertheless, the angelic testimony compelled them to tell the apostles.

Only Peter and John were curious enough to see for themselves, trying to reconcile their Kabbalistic worldview even though Jesus made it clear on multiple occasions that He would rise from the dead.
