Matthew 28:7
And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. (Matthew 28:7)
Tell his disciples.
Perhaps God chose to make these godly women messengers of the joyful news of the resurrection, rather than to give the tidings directly to the disciples themselves, because of their continuing ministry of love and devotion at a time when the disciples had practically forsaken Him.
He goeth.
 As A Jesus had foretold on the night of His betrayal (see ch. 26:32).
There shall ye see him.
 This promise was fulfilled when some 500 believers assembled together secretly on an appointed mountain in Galilee (1 Cor. 15:6; cf. DA 818, 819). The appearances in Judea were, for the most part, very brief.
