Have you ever noticed the seemingly different accounts of the number of angels present at the resurrection of Jesus? Matthew and Mark have one angel present, who is dressed in white (Matt. 28:2; Mk. 16:5). Luke and John have two men in white clothes that gleamed like lightning (Luke 24:4; John 20:12). According to Matthew the angel sat on the tomb stone. Mark records that an angel sat inside the tomb on the right side. Luke has two angels standing next to the women. John says two were seated one at the head and the other at the foot where Jesus would have laid in the tomb. It can be confusing!
