THE REALITY OF THE RISEN JESUS

36 Asaa they were saying these things, he himself stood in their midst. He said to them, “Peaceab to you!” 37 But they were startled and terrifiedac and thought they were seeing a ghost.ad 38 “Why are you troubled?”ae he asked them. “And why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself!af Touch me and see,ag because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have.” 40 Having said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 But while they still were amazed and in disbelief because of their joy, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 So they gave him a piece of a broiled fish,D 43 and he took it and ate in their presence.
