What Does Luke 24:9 Mean?
With the angels' message and their revived memory of Jesus' words, the women leave the tomb and go straight to the gathered disciples — the eleven, and the wider company with them — and tell all of it.
The first bearers of resurrection news are these women, sent with the message before anyone else believed it. Witness begins the moment grace is received: they go from hearing to telling within a single verse. Good news of Christ is not given to be kept. Whatever we have seen of his faithfulness is meant to be carried to others, even others not yet ready to believe it.
