Commentary on Matthew (420)

(Vers. 6, 7.) Come and see the place where the Lord was laid. And quickly going, say to his disciples. That if you do not believe my words, you may believe in the empty tomb, and go with quick steps and announce to his disciples. Because he has risen, and behold, he goes before you to Galilee: there you will see him: behold, I have told you.

Jerome

Catena Aurea by Aquinas (420)

Mystically; He shall go before you into Galilee, that is, into the wallowing stye of the Gentiles, where before was wandering and stumbling, and the foot had no firm and steady resting-place.

Matthew Henry

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

For the further proof of the resurrection of Christ, we have here the confession of the adversaries that were upon the guard; and there are two things which strengthen this testimony--that they were eye-witnesses, and did themselves see the glory of the resurrection, which none else did--and that they were enemies, set there to oppose and obstruct his resurrection.

Tell his disciples - Mark adds particularly, “tell Peter.” This was a kind message to Peter, who had so recently denied his Lord. It would serve to cheer him in his despondency, and to assure him that his sin had been forgiven; and it shows the tender love and remembrance of Jesus, even for his unfaithful friends.
