Announcement of the Resurrection

February 8, 2023 PM, Matthew 28:1-8.

In just under two months (April 9, 2023) we will be celebrating the resurrection of Christ. But today in our verse-by-verse study in Matthew, we are already at the Scripture which reveals that miraculous event which is at the very foundation of the Christian faith. The text does not give any “theology” or “explanation of the meaning” of the events. It just recounts what happened. Let us read through it with Matthew and see what we can glean.

One thing we glean is this: the glorious truth of the resurrection must be told. So commanded the angel of God.
