The Resurrection

Matthew 28:1–10; Mark 16:1–8; John 20:1–9

1But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.+ 2And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.+ 3And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.+ 4And it came to pass, while they were perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel:+ 5and as they were affrighted and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?+ 6He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,+ 7saying that the Son of man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.+ 8And they remembered his words,+ 9and returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.+ 10Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the [mother] of James: and the other women with them told these things unto the apostles.+ 11And these words appeared in their sight as idle talk; and they disbelieved them.+ 12But Peter arose, and ran unto the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth the linen cloths by themselves; and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.+

The Road to Emmaus

Mark 16:12–13

13And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was threescore furlongs from Jerusalem.+ 14And they communed with each other of all these things which had happened.+ 15And it came to pass, while they communed and questioned together, that Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.+ 16But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.+ 17And he said unto them, What communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk? And they stood still, looking sad.+ 18And one of them, named Cleopas, answering said unto him, Dost thou alone sojourn in Jerusalem and not know the things which are come to pass there in these days?+ 19And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:+ 20and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.+ 21But we hoped that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yea and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things came to pass.+ 22Moreover certain women of our company amazed us, having been early at the tomb;+ 23and when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.+ 24And certain of them that were with us went to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.+ 25And he said unto them, O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!+ 26Behooved it not the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory?+ 27And beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.+ 28And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they were going: and he made as though he would go further.+ 29And they constrained him, saying, Abide with us; for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent. And he went in to abide with them.+ 30And it came to pass, when he had sat down with them to meat, he took the bread and blessed; and breaking [it] he gave to them.+ 31And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.+ 32And they said one to another, Was not our heart burning within us, while he spake to us in the way, while he opened to us the scriptures?+ 33And they rose up that very hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,+ 34saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.+ 35And they rehearsed the things [that happened] in the way, and how he was known of them in the breaking of the bread.+

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

John 20:19–23; 1 John 1:1–4

36And as they spake these things, he himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.+ 37But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit.+ 38And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do questionings arise in your heart?+ 39See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having.+ 40And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.+ 41And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here anything to eat?+ 42And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish.+ 43And he took it, and ate before them.+ 44And he said unto them, These are my words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me.+ 45Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the scriptures;+ 46and he said unto them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day;+ 47and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.+ 48Ye are witnesses of these things.+ 49And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high.+

The Ascension

Mark 16:19–20; Acts 1:6–11

50And he led them out until [they were] over against Bethany: and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.+ 51And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven.+ 52And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:+ 53and were continually in the temple, blessing God.+
