but, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, unto the tomb, came they, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
2 and they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb,

3 and having gone in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

He is not here, but hath arisen: Remember how he spake unto you while yet he was in Galilee:
7 saying — It behoveth the Son of Man to be delivered up to the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.'
Saying, as to the Son of Man, that he must needs be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, —and, on the third day, arise.
8 And they remembered his sayings,

12 And Peter having risen, did run to the tomb, and having stooped down he seeth the linen clothes lying alone, and he went away to his own home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

17 and he said unto them, 'What [are] these words that ye exchange with one another, walking, and ye are sad?'

38 And he said to them, 'Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do reasonings come up in your hearts?
And he said unto them—Why are ye troubled? and for what cause do reasonings arise in your hearts?
39 see my hands and my feet, that I am he; handle me and see, because a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me having.'
See my hands, and my feet, —that it is, I, myself: Handle me, and see! because, a spirit, hath not, flesh and bones, as ye perceive, I, have.
40 And having said this, he shewed to them the hands and the feet,
And, this saying, he pointed out to them his hands and his feet.
41 and while they are not believing from the joy, and wondering, he said to them, 'Have ye anything here to eat?'
