This week's Bible story in found in Luke.

 Taken from The Beginner's Bible

Jesus is laid in the tomb

A rich man named Joseph of Arimathea, had a new tomb where he had planned to be buried. He took Jesus' body from the cross and put it in his own empty tomb.

Joseph and Jesus' friends' wrapped His body in strips of linen and laid it carefully in the tomb. Roman soldiers came to guard the tomb. They rolled a huge stone over the door and sealed it in a way that would show if anyone tried to move the stone.

A Big Surprise

Matthew 28

The day after Jesus was buried was a Holy day, so his friends had to stay home. Then very early on Sunday morning, the first day of the week, the women went back to the tomb. It was the third day since Jesus had died.

When the women got there they couldn't believe their eyes. The stone had been rolled away! An angel of God was sitting on the stone. The soldiers were so frightened they were like dead men.

The angel said, "Don't be afraid. Jesus is alive!"

Those women were as happy as they could be! They ran to find other friends of Jesus.

Some of Jesus' friends didn't believe what the women said. But everything the women said was true. Jesus was alive! He had risen from death.
