When the women come to the tomb, they find the stone door open and the angel seated there. They are understandably frightened. (After all, the appearance of the angel was enough to cause Roman soldiers to faint. Virtually everyone who sees an angel, in Scripture, reacts in fear.)

The angel, though, urges them not to be afraid. He calms the women by revealing that he knows why they have come. They are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

With these words, the angel reveals that he knows Jesus' body occupied this tomb and is no longer present.
