Matthew 28:2

Suddenly there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and rolled away the stone [in front of the tomb where Jesus was buried] and sat on it. [The earthquake was caused by the angel, but was probably experienced as an aftershock of the earlier earthquake, see Matt. 27:51–52.]
