The Resurrection

20:1 Now very early on the first day of the week,1 while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene2 came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been moved away from the entrance.3 20:2 So she went running4 to Simon Peter and the other disciple whom Jesus loved and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” 20:3 Then Peter and the other disciple set out to go to the tomb.5 20:4 The two were running together, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter6 and reached the tomb first.7 20:5 He bent down8 and saw the strips of linen cloth lying there,9 but he did not go in. 20:6 Then Simon Peter, who had been following him, arrived and went right into the tomb. He saw10 the strips of linen cloth lying there, 20:7 and the face cloth,11 which had been around Jesus’ head, not lying with the strips of linen cloth but rolled up in a place by itself.12 20:8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, came in, and he saw and believed.13 20:9 (For they did not yet understand14 the scripture that Jesus15 must rise from the dead.)16
