Luke 24:20-42

²⁰and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death and crucified him.

²¹But we had confidence that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Yes, and what is more, it is now the third day since all these things happened.

²²But also, some women of our company amazed us, having been at the tomb early in the morning.

²³When they did not find his body, they came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that he was alive.

²⁴Some men who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said. But they did not see him.”
