Matthew 28:6
“He is not here, for he has risen, just like he said. Come, see the place where the Lord was lying.”
What does Matthew 28:6 mean?
The angel invites the women at Jesus's tomb to look inside and confirm the impossible: the body is gone because Jesus has returned to life. This moment echoes Jesus's own predictions about his resurrection, so the angel's words are both a joyful announcement and a "I told you so" that validates everything he taught. The invitation to "come, see" is significant because it offers them direct evidence rather than just asking them to believe secondhand. For those grieving or doubting, this verse reminds us that we're invited to investigate faith ourselves, to look at the evidence and the empty space where despair once seemed final.
