15. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?” She thought that it was the gardener, and said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him.”
16. Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned around and said to him in Aramaic, “Rabboni” (which means “Teacher”).
17. Jesus said to her, “Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.’ ”
18. Mary Magdalene came and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and he had said these things to her.
19. Now when it was evening on that day—the first day of the week—and the doors had been shut where the disciples were because of fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace to you.”
20. And when he had said this, he showed his hands and his side to them. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21. So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you. As the Father has sent me, I also send you.”
22. And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them. If you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
24. Now Thomas, one of the twelve, who was called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
25. So the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe!”
26. And after eight days his disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Although the doors had been shut, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said, “Peace to you.”
