Why does Matthew say there was only one angel at the tomb when John says there were two?
Matthew 28:5 refers to the “angel” at the tomb after Jesus’ resurrection, and yet John says there were “two angels” there (John 20:12)? What's the right answer, 1 or 2?
Matthew 28:5
ESV - 5 But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
