8. The other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, then entered the tomb, saw, and believed.
9. For they still did not understand the Scripture that He must rise from the dead.
10. Then the disciples went home again.
11. But Mary stood outside facing the tomb, crying. As she was crying, she stooped to look into the tomb.
12. She saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet, where Jesus’ body had been lying.
13. They said to her, “Woman, why are you crying? ”“Because they’ve taken away my Lord,” she told them, “and I don’t know where they’ve put Him.”
14. Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, though she did not know it was Jesus.
15. “Woman,” Jesus said to her, “why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for? ”Supposing He was the gardener, she replied, “Sir, if you’ve removed Him, tell me where you’ve put Him, and I will take Him away.”
16. Jesus said, “Mary.”Turning around, she said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabbouni!” — which means “Teacher.”
17. “Don’t cling to Me,” Jesus told her, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to My brothers and tell them that I am ascending to My Father and your Father — to My God and your God.”
18. Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord! ” And she told them what He had said to her.
19. In the evening of that first day of the week, the disciples were gathered together with the doors locked because of their fear of the Jews. Then Jesus came, stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you! ”
20. Having said this, He showed them His hands and His side. So the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21. Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
