A serene digital painting capturing the poignant moment from Matthew 28:1-7. As dawn breaks on the first day of the week, two women, one of Middle-Eastern descent and the other of South Asian descent approach a tomb amidst an earthquake. Out of the heavens, an angel descends, moving the tomb's stone and sitting on it. The angel radiates a light as vivid as lightning, clad in clothes as white as snow, causing the Middle-Eastern and Caucasian guards to shake with fear and mimic the stillness of death. The angel, comforting the women, reveals the absence of their crucified savior and his resurrection, instructing them to spread the news.
Matthew 28:1-7 - "After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. 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. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you."
