From Background Notes [BN] for April 11th
& 12th written by Pastor Bob Brown:
It becomes a theme of the New Testament’s
telling of the gospel that the powers of this world will tremble before the
overwhelming majesty of the resurrected Jesus. He is Lord and he is Victor, and...
... these images are all present in
the actions of the angel and in the reactions of the guards at the tomb. As
overwhelming as the angel is to the Roman guards, he is by contrast gentle and assuring
to the women. [BN,3-4]
