Matthew chooses to end his account of the earthly life of Jesus with this 'great commission'. The eleven remaining apostles were present - Judas the betrayer was dead (Matthew 27:3-10) - even though some of them were really not sure what was going on (Matthew 28:17). Having clearly stated the basis of His authority (Matthew 28:18), Jesus gave them instructions for their lives' work, and the work for all of the world-wide Church until He returns.
