Meaning of Resurrection
To resurrect means to bring back to life or to rise from the dead after being declared dead. This coming to life again after death happened to Jesus as he had predicted on three different occasions before his death.
The Account of Resurrection in Matthew (Matthew 28: 1-8)
The resurrection story of Jesus Christ in St. Matthew’s gospel holds that early in the morning, on the first day of the week (Sunday), Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James went to the tomb. There was a great earthquake, because an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, rolled away the stone, and sat upon it. The appearance of the angel was lightning and his raiment as white as snow. This created great fear in the guards.
The Angel said to the women ‘Do not be afraid; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
