Three Men Exit the Tomb

Open in the reader →

1(38) When the soldiers saw this, they woke the centurion and the elders, because they too were there keeping watch. (39) While the soldiers were explaining to them what they had seen, they again saw three men coming out of the tomb. Two of them were supporting the third, and a cross was following them. (40) The heads of the two reached as high as heaven, but the head of the one they were leading reached beyond the heavens.

2(41) They heard a voice from the heavens saying, “Have you proclaimed to those who sleep?”

3(42) A reply was heard from the cross: “Yes!”
