The text is taken from the Gospel of Matthew 28:6-7;
“(6) He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.

(7) And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and behold, He is going before you into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you.”

The Three Marys are referenced in the Gospel of St John, the other Gospels only name Mary Magdalene or suggest only one or two were present.
