Smurfed Behind: The Passion Of The Smurfs/Part 6

Early the next morning, Tapper went to the tomb of the Messiah with Smurfette, Brainy, Clumsy, Grouchy, and Duncan following behind him. When they got to the place, they saw that there was a guard standing at the entrance of the tomb, which had been sealed off with a large circular stone.

"Michty me, laddie, what are we smurfing around here for anyway?" Duncan asked.

"I have to see for myself the tomb where the Almighty's Son has been laid, from which He will rise again on the third day," Tapper said.

"But that's ridiculous, Tapper," Brainy said. "People don't rise from the dead unless they've been smurfed back from the dead through magic."

"This isn't magic that will smurf the Lord back from the dead, Brainy," Tapper said. "This is the work of the triune God, and He will have witnesses to this resurrection that will smurf on to preach the truth to those who smurf ears to listen."

"Gosh, I wonder what it will be like to smurf back from the dead," Clumsy said.

"Why would you want to smurf back from the dead?" Grouchy asked. "I think being dead is better."

"What's with the guard smurfing at the entrance of the tomb?" Smurfette asked.

"He was smurfed there at the insistence of the high priests, Smurfette," Tapper said. "They heard what the Lord said that He would rise from the dead on the third day, and believe that the disciples would smurf away His body from the tomb and say that He had risen in order to deceive the public. This is to make sure that nobody would smurf fools out of anyone."

"But He's surely not going to smurf in the grave for long, isn't He?" Duncan said.

"No, He won't, my fellow Duncan," Tapper said. "The stone will be smurfed away from the tomb, and the Messiah will smurf out of there, fully resurrected, though smurfing the scars of His earthly death to prove that He had truly been smurfed back from the dead."

"Well, I sure hope to smurf here when that happens, or else I'm not believing a single word you're smurfing about Him," Brainy said.

"I only pray that when you do smurf Him risen from the dead, that you will not think that it's anything other than the truth, Brainy," Tapper said.

"I don't smurf any of the other disciples smurfing to the tomb at this time, Tapper," Smurfette said as she looked around the area.

"This is the time of the Sabbath, when all of God's people are commanded to rest, my dear Smurfette," Tapper said. "We will see them again when it smurfs time for the Lord to be risen from the dead."
