The Angel Seated upon the Stone of the Tomb
|
  |
 |
2 There was a violent
earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the
tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3
His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.
4 The guards were so afraid of him that
they shook and became like dead men. Matthew 28:2-4
