Deceptive? The requests of this thread were made abundantly clear, and you can at least acknowledge these three legitimate questions unless you want to derail this thread for the sake of attacking me instead of addressing an actual topic asking 3 legitimate biblical questions.
Now, please either answer these 3 questions directly, or post somewhere else:
1) How many women came to the tomb? One (John)? Two (Matthew)? Three (Mark)? More (Luke)?
2) What were the last words of Jesus? Three gospels have three different accounts of his last words.
3) Was the tomb already open when they got there (Matthew indicates the tomb was open, the other three claim it was closed)?
Thank you.
Where are you discerning that Matthew says the tomb was open? is some web page giving you bad info?

Matthew 28:1-8New International Version (NIV)
Jesus Has Risen
28 After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
2 There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4 The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.
5 The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
8 So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.
