Today I am retelling the story of the resurrection of Jesus based on Matthew 28:1-10 Jesus Has Risen 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. So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. Greetings, he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.
While the whole story expresses Matthews belief that Jesus rose from the dead, some words and phrases make that point particulary clear. The children should be aware that the point of the resurrection story is: That Jesus is incarnate. That Jesus resurrection offers us a chance of new life now . That our spirit will be with God for eternity after we die . Discuss symbols of Easter and how they show new life. http://www.kidsgen.com/events/easter/easter_symbols.htm
