Matthew 28:4 in Context — Matthew 28

2 Y he aquí, fué hecho un gran terremoto: porque el ángel del Señor, descendiendo del cielo y llegando, había revuelto la piedra, y estaba sentado sobre ella.

3 Y su aspecto era como un relámpago, y su vestido blanco como la nieve.

4 Y de miedo de él los guardas se asombraron, y fueron vueltos como muertos.

5 Y respondiendo el ángel, dijo á las mujeres: No temáis vosotras; porque yo sé que buscáis á Jesús, que fué crucificado.

6 No está aquí; porque ha resucitado, como dijo. Venid, ved el lugar donde fué puesto el Señor.
