And about the ninth hour Jesus
cried out with a loud voice,
saying, “Eli, Eli, lema
sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my
God, why have you forsaken me?”
And some of the bystanders,
hearing it, said, “This man is
calling Elijah.” And one of them
at once ran and took a sponge,
filled it with sour wine, and put
it on a reed and gave it to him to
drink. But the others said, “Wait,
let us see whether Elijah will
come to save him.” And Jesus cried
out again with a loud voice and
yielded up his spirit.
(Matthew 27:46-50)
ESV
Now after the Sabbath, toward the
dawn of the first day of the week,
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary
went to see the tomb. And behold,
there was a great earthquake, for
an angel of the Lord descended
from heaven and came and rolled
back the stone and sat on it. His
appearance was like lightning, and
his clothing white as snow. And
for fear of him the guards
trembled and became like dead men.
But the angel said to the women,
“Do not be afraid, for I know that
you seek Jesus who was crucified.
...
(Matthew 28:1-20)

(Mark 15:42)
ESV
When the Sabbath was past, Mary
Magdalene and Mary the mother of
James and Salome bought spices, so
that they might go and anoint him.
And very early on the first day of
the week, when the sun had risen,
they went to the tomb. And they
were saying to one another, “Who
will roll away the stone for us
from the entrance of the tomb?”
And looking up, they saw that the
stone had been rolled back—it was
very large. And entering the tomb,
they saw a young man sitting on
the right side, dressed in a white
robe, and they were alarmed. ...
(Mark 16:1-8)

Now when he rose early on the
first day of the week, he appeared
first to Mary Magdalene, from whom
he had cast out seven demons.

Then they returned and prepared
spices and ointments. On the
Sabbath they rested according to
the commandment.
(Luke 23:56)
ESV
But on the first day of the week,
at early dawn, they went to the
tomb, taking the spices they had
prepared. And they found the stone
rolled away from the tomb, but
when they went in they did not
find the body of the Lord Jesus.
While they were perplexed about
this, behold, two men stood by
them in dazzling apparel. And as
they were frightened and bowed
their faces to the ground, the men
said to them, “Why do you seek the
living among the dead? ...
(Luke 24:1-12)
ESV
As they were talking about these
things, Jesus himself stood among
them, and said to them, “Peace to
you!” But they were startled and
frightened and thought they saw a
spirit. And he said to them, “Why
are you troubled, and why do
doubts arise in your hearts? See
my hands and my feet, that it is I
myself. Touch me, and see. For a
spirit does not have flesh and
bones as you see that I have.”
(Luke 24:36-39)
ESV
For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only Son, that whoever
believes in him should not perish
but have eternal life.
(John 3:16)
ESV
Since it was the day of
Preparation, and so that the
bodies would not remain on the
cross on the Sabbath (for that
Sabbath was a high day), the Jews
asked Pilate that their legs might
be broken and that they might be
taken away.
(John 19:31)
ESV
Now on the first day of the week
Mary Magdalene came to the tomb
early, while it was still dark,
and saw that the stone had been
taken away from the tomb. So she
ran and went to Simon Peter and
the other disciple, the one whom
Jesus loved, and said to them,
“They have taken the Lord out of
the tomb, and we do not know where
they have laid him.” So Peter went
out with the other disciple, and
they were going toward the tomb.
Both of them were running
together, but the other disciple
outran Peter and reached the tomb
first. And stooping to look in, he
saw the linen cloths lying there,
but he did not go in. ...
(John 20:1-18)
ESV
For I received from the Lord what
I also delivered to you, that the
Lord Jesus on the night when he
was betrayed took bread, and when
he had given thanks, he broke it,
and said, “This is my body which
is for you. Do this in remembrance
of me.” In the same way also he
took the cup, after supper,
saying, “This cup is the new
covenant in my blood. Do this, as
often as you drink it, in
remembrance of me.” For as often
as you eat this bread and drink
the cup, you proclaim the Lord's
death until he comes.
(1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
ESV1
