Contextual Overview
1 And the first of the sabbaths, while still very early, they came on the tomb, carrying spices which they prepared; and some were with them. 2 And they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb. 3 And going in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 And it happened, as they were perplexed about this, even behold, two men in shining clothing stood by them. 5 And they becoming terrified, and bowing their faces to the earth, they said to them, Why do you seek the living with the dead? 6 He is not here, but was raised. Remember how He spoke to you, yet being in Galilee, 7 saying, The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again. 8 And they remembered His Words. 9 And returning from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven, and to all the rest. 10 And they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary mother of James, and the rest with them, who told these things to the apostles.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And their words seemed to them as idle tales,.... As fabulous things, as mere whims, and the fancies of their brains: "as a dream", according to the Persic version; or, "as a jest", as the Arabic version renders it. They looked upon them as mere deceptions and delusions, and not real things; the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions read, "these words"; what they related concerning what they saw, and heard, at the sepulchre:
and they believed them not: for they had no thought, nor expectation of Christ's rising from the dead; they did not know that he was to rise again, according to the Scriptures; nor did they understand him when he told them of his rising again; and had no faith in it, nor hope concerning it, and could give no credit to it, when it was told them; and the Arabic version reads, "they did not believe it"; the word or report which the women delivered to them.
