ASLEEP ON THE JOB

Matthew 28:12-13 When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ I find Matthew's account of the resurrection rather fascinating, especially when...
