Matthew 28:9-20

Suddenly Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” They came to Him, grasped His feet, and worshiped Him.

“Do not be afraid,” said Jesus. “Go and tell My brothers to go to Galilee. There they will see Me.”

While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.

And after the chief priests had met with the elders and formed a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money

and instructed them: “You are to say, ‘His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.’

If this report reaches the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.”

So the guards took the money and did as they were instructed. And this account has been circulated among the Jews to this very day.

Meanwhile, the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain Jesus had designated.

When they saw Him, they worshiped Him, but some doubted.

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,

and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
