La tomba vuota. Messaggio dell'angelo

16 Passato il sabato, Maria di Màgdala, Maria di Giacomo e Salome comprarono oli aromatici per andare a imbalsamare Gesù. Di buon mattino, il primo giorno dopo il sabato, vennero al sepolcro al levar del sole. Esse dicevano tra loro: «Chi ci rotolerà via il masso dall'ingresso del sepolcro?». Ma, guardando, videro che il masso era gia stato rotolato via, benché fosse molto grande. Entrando nel sepolcro, videro un giovane, seduto sulla destra, vestito d'una veste bianca, ed ebbero paura. Ma egli disse loro: «Non abbiate paura! Voi cercate Gesù Nazareno, il crocifisso. E' risorto, non è qui. Ecco il luogo dove l'avevano deposto. Ora andate, dite ai suoi discepoli e a Pietro che egli vi precede in Galilea. Là lo vedrete, come vi ha detto». Ed esse, uscite, fuggirono via dal sepolcro perché erano piene di timore e di spavento. E non dissero niente a nessuno, perché avevano paura.

Apparizioni di Gesù risuscitato

Risuscitato al mattino nel primo giorno dopo il sabato, apparve prima a Maria di Màgdala, dalla quale aveva cacciato sette demòni. 10 Questa andò ad annunziarlo ai suoi seguaci che erano in lutto e in pianto. 11 Ma essi, udito che era vivo ed era stato visto da lei, non vollero credere.

12 Dopo ciò, apparve a due di loro sotto altro aspetto, mentre erano in cammino verso la campagna. 13 Anch'essi ritornarono ad annunziarlo agli altri; ma neanche a loro vollero credere.

14 Alla fine apparve agli undici, mentre stavano a mensa, e li rimproverò per la loro incredulità e durezza di cuore, perché non avevano creduto a quelli che lo avevano visto risuscitato.

15 Gesù disse loro: «Andate in tutto il mondo e predicate il vangelo ad ogni creatura. 16 Chi crederà e sarà battezzato sarà salvo, ma chi non crederà sarà condannato. 17 E questi saranno i segni che accompagneranno quelli che credono: nel mio nome scacceranno i demòni, parleranno lingue nuove, 18 prenderanno in mano i serpenti e, se berranno qualche veleno, non recherà loro danno, imporranno le mani ai malati e questi guariranno».

19 Il Signore Gesù, dopo aver parlato con loro, fu assunto in cielo e sedette alla destra di Dio.

20 Allora essi partirono e predicarono dappertutto, mentre il Signore operava insieme con loro e confermava la parola con i prodigi che l'accompagnavano.

Jesus Has Risen(A)

16 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices(B) so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?”(C)

But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe(D) sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene,(E) who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him,(F) just as he told you.’”(G)

Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.[a]


[The earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9–20.]

When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene,(H) out of whom he had driven seven demons. 10 She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. 11 When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it.(I)

12 Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country.(J) 13 These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either.

14 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.(K)

15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.(L) 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.(M) 17 And these signs(N) will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons;(O) they will speak in new tongues;(P) 18 they will pick up snakes(Q) with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on(R) sick people, and they will get well.”

19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven(S) and he sat at the right hand of God.(T) 20 Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs(U) that accompanied it.
