Luke 24:2

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

Cross-reference

Matthew 27:60-66 describes the stone being rolled to seal the tomb — the same stone later found rolled away in Luke 24:2.

Matthew 28:2 explains how the stone was rolled away by an angel, the very event behind the women's discovery in Luke 24:2.

Mark 15:47 Historical context

Mark 15:47 confirms the women watched Jesus' burial, establishing why they knew the correct tomb to visit.

Mark 16:3 Parallel

Mark 16:3 shows the women worrying about who would roll away the stone — a concern resolved when they find it already rolled away.

Mark 16:4 Parallel

Mark 16:4 directly parallels this moment: the women look up and see the stone rolled back, emphasizing its large size.

John 20:1 Parallel

John 20:1 gives the same event with added detail — Mary Magdalene comes early while still dark and sees the stone removed.

John 20:2 Historical context

John 20:2 records Mary's immediate reaction: she runs to tell Peter and John, assuming the body has been taken.
