And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel:

At this they were in great perplexity, when suddenly there stood by them two men whose raiment flashed like lightning.

And while they were in doubt about it, they saw two men in shining clothing by them:

And it happened that, while their minds were still confused about this, behold, two men stood beside them, in shining apparel.

While they were at a loss to account for this, all at once two men stood beside them, in dazzling clothing.

And it came to pass as they were much perplexed thereabout,.... About the body of Christ, and its being gone, what should become of it, whither it was removed, and by what means, and by whom; whether by a friend, or foe, for they had no thought, nor expectation of a resurrection;
behold, two men stood by them in shining garments; who were angels in the form of men; and as these were the first witnesses of Christs resurrection, there were two of them; for by the mouth of two or three witnesses every thing is established. Matthew and Mark take notice but of one; but John makes mention of two, as here, seen by Mary Magdalene, though in a different posture; they were sitting, the one at the head, the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain; but when the rest of the women came, they were risen up, and stood close by them, on a sudden, at an unawares, being arrayed in white raiment, as white as snow, as a token of their purity and innocence, and as bringers of good tidings; and as joining in the triumph of their Lord's resurrection: their garments were bright and glittering like lightning, to set forth the glory and majesty of these celestial spirits, and that they might be known to be what they were.

Behold two - Angels in the form of men. Mary had seen them a little before. They had disappeared on these women's coming to the sepulchre, but now appeared again. St. Matthew and Mark mention only one of them, appearing like a young man.
