A huge stone (probably weighing about two tonnes) was rolled across the doorway to the tomb. However, thirty-six hours later when Jesus’ friends came to the tomb they found the body missing. Both the Roman and Jewish authorities are terrified of the effect this news might have on people. Jesus’ followers are claiming the most amazing things for their dead leader.
