ucified a
garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one was yet laid.
[19:42]In that therefore they laid Jesus, on account of the preparation
of the Jews, because the tomb was near.
CHAPTER XXII.
CHRIST AFTER THE RESURRECTION.
1 [20:1]AND on the first day of the week, Mary the Magdalene came in
the morning, while it was yet dark, to the tomb and saw the stone taken
away from the tomb. [20:2]Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to
the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, They have taken
away the Lord from the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.
[20:3]Then went Peter and the other disciple, and came to the tomb.
[20:4]And the two ran together; and the other disciple outran Peter and
came first to the tomb, [20:5]and stooping down saw the bandages lying,
but he went not in. [20:6]Then Simon Peter came following him, and went
into the tomb, and beheld the bandages lying, [20:7]and the napkin
which was on his head not lying with the bandages but folded up in a
place by itself. [20:8]Then the other disciple who came first to the
tomb also entered in, and saw and believed; [20:9]for they did not yet
know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead. [20:10]Then the
disciples went away by themselves.
2 [20:11]But Mary stood at the tomb outside, weeping. Then as she wept
she stooped down to the tomb, [20:12]and saw two angels in white
sitting one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of
Jesus had lain. [20:13]And they said to her, Woman, why do you weep?
She said to them, Because they have taken my Lord and I know not where
they have laid him. [20:14]Having said these words she turned around
and beheld Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus. [20:15]Jesus
said to her, Woman, why do you weep? whom do you seek? She, supposing
that he was the gardener, said to him, Sir, if you have borne him away,
tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him. [20:16]Jesus said
to her, Mary. She, turning around, said to him in Hebrew, Rabboni,
which is interpreted, Teacher. [20:17]Jesus said to her, Do not touch
me; for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers
and tell them, I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and
your God. [20:18]Mary the Magdalene came and told the disciples that
she had seen the Lord, and that he said these things to her.
3 [20:19]Then when it was evening, on that first day of the week, and
the doors were shut
