John 20:10

8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.

9 For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.

Then the disciples returned to their homes.

11 But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb,

12 and she saw two angels in white sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
