7He also saw the cloth that they had wrapped around Jesus' head. It had been folded and put {Someone had folded it and put it} aside, separate from the linen strips.
8Then I also went inside. I saw those things and I believed that Jesus had truly become alive again.
9Before this happened, we did not understand from what the prophets had written in the Scriptures, that he had to become alive again after he died.
10Then we two disciples went back to where we were staying. In the meantime, Mary returned to the cave.
11As she stood outside the cave crying, she stooped down to look inside the cave.
12She saw two angels in very white clothing, sitting at the place where Jesus' body had been laid. One was where his head had been, and the other was where his feet had been.
13They said to her, “Woman, why are you crying?” She said to them, “They have taken away the body of my Lord, and I do not know where they have put it!”
14After she said that, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.
15He said to her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?” Thinking that he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have taken his body away, tell me where you have put it. Then I will get it and bury it properly.”
16Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned toward him again and recognized him. Then she exclaimed in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” which means ❛Teacher❜.
17Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to me, because I have not yet returned to my Father. Go to my disciples and tell them, ‘I am about to return to my Father and your Father, to the one who is my God and your God’.”
18So Mary went to where we disciples were and told us that she had seen the Lord alive again. She also told us what Jesus said that she should tell us.
19On that Sunday evening we disciples gathered together. The doors were locked { We locked the doors} because we were afraid that the Jewish leaders SYN might arrest us. Suddenly Jesus appeared miraculously and stood among us! He said to us, “May God give you inner peace!”
20After he said that, he showed us the wounds in his hands and his side. We were very happy when we saw the Lord!
21Jesus said to us again, “May God give you peace! Just like my Father sent me, now I am sending you to proclaim my message.”
22After saying that, he breathed on us and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit!
23If you forgive people for their having sinned, God will already have forgiven them. If you do not forgive them, God has not forgiven them.”
24One of us disciples, Thomas, the one whom we called The Twin, was not with us when Jesus appeared to us.
25When the rest of us told him that we had seen the Lord, he said to us, “If I do not see the marks of the nails in his hands and put my fingers in the place where the nails were, and put my hands into the place in his side where the soldier thrust the spear, I will certainly not believe that he was the one you saw!”
26A week later we were in the house again. This time Thomas was with us. Although the doors had been locked { we had locked the doors}, Jesus again appeared miraculously and stood among us. He said, “May God give peace to you!”
27Then he showed Thomas his hands and said to him, “Put your finger here! Look at the wounds in my hands! Reach out your hand and put it in the wound in my side! Stop doubting LIT/DOU! Instead, believe that I am alive again!”
