Luke 24:5-11

5The women were terrified and bowed with their faces to the ground. Then the men asked, “Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive?

6He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Remember what he told you back in Galilee,

7that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and that he would rise again on the third day.”

8Then they remembered that he had said this.

9So they rushed back from the tomb to tell his eleven disciples—and everyone else—what had happened.

10It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and several other women who told the apostles what had happened.

11But the story sounded like nonsense to the men, so they didn’t believe it.
