^41 (A)not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us ^(B)who ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.

^22 (A)Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?”

³⁹ And we are ^(A)witnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom ^[a]they ^(B)killed by hanging on a tree.

¹³ Jesus then came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish.

^17 (A)the Spirit of truth, ^(B)whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you ^(C)and will be in you.

^31 (A)He was seen for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.

²² beginning from the baptism of John to that day when ^(A)He was taken up from us, one of these must ^(B)become a witness with us of His resurrection.”

^2 (A)until the day in which ^[a]He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit ^(B)had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, ^3 (C)to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many ^[b]infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

The Empty Tomb^(A)

20 Now the ^(B)first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the ^(C)stone had been taken away from the tomb. ² Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the ^(D)other disciple, ^(E)whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him.”

^3 (F)Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb. ⁴ So they both ran together, and the other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first. ⁵ And he, stooping down and looking in, saw ^(G)the linen cloths lying there; yet he did not go in. ⁶ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there, ⁷ and ^(H)the ^[a]handkerchief that had been around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself. ⁸ Then the ^(I)other disciple, who came to the tomb first, went in also; and he saw and believed. ⁹ For as yet they did not ^[b]know the ^(J)Scripture, that He must rise again from the dead. ¹⁰ Then the disciples went away again to their own homes.

Mary Magdalene Sees the Risen Lord

^11 (K)But Mary stood outside by the tomb weeping, and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the tomb. ¹² And she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. ¹³ Then they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?”

She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.”

^14 (L)Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and ^(M)did not know that it was Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?”

She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, “Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.”

¹⁶ Jesus said to her, ^(N)“Mary!”

She turned and said to ^[c]Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).

¹⁷ Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ^(O)ascended to My Father; but go to ^(P)My brethren and say to them, ^(Q)‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to ^(R)My God and your God.’ ”

^18 (S)Mary Magdalene came and told the ^[d]disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.

The Apostles Commissioned^(T)

^19 (U)Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were ^[e]assembled, for ^(V)fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, ^(W)“Peace be with you.” ²⁰ When He had said this, He ^(X)showed them His hands and His side. ^(Y)Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.

²¹ So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! ^(Z)As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
