CommentAugustine of HippoPublic domainMatthew 28:8–10

We conclude that they had speech of Angels twice at the sepulchre; when they saw one Angel, of whom Matthew and Mark speak; and again when they saw two Angels, as Luke and John relate. And twice in like manner of the Lord; once at that time when Mary supposed Him to be “the gardener,” [John 20:15] and now again when He met them in the way to confirm them by repetition, and to restore them from their faintness.
