who appeared for [many] days more to those going up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.

And as they were going to report to His disciples, that behold, Jesus met them, saying, "Rejoice!" So they came and held His feet and worshipped Him.

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them.

She went and reported to those who had been with Him, as they were grieving and weeping.

After that, He appeared in a different form to two of them as they were going into the country.

Afterwards He appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who saw Him after He had been raised.

And on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

And going in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

Then, as they became afraid and bowed their faces to the ground, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

saying, 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.'"

And returning from the tomb, they reported all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

And their words seemed like nonsense before them, and they disbelieved them.

Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

So it was, as they were conversing and discussing, that Jesus Himself drew near and started to travel with them.

And He said to them, "What [are] these words which you are exchanging with one another as you walk, and you have a gloomy look?"

And He said to them, "What things?" So they said to Him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who proved to be a man [who was] a Prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened.

And not finding His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

Then He said to them, "O [you] foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

But they constrained Him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." And He went in to stay with them.

Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Him; and He vanished from their sight.

So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

And they described the things that had happened on the road, and how He was known to them in the breaking of bread.

But being alarmed and becoming fearful, they thought they saw a spirit.

Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have."

But as they still disbelieved for joy, and marveled, He said to them, "Do you have any food here?"

And taking it, He ate [it] in their presence.

And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

And behold, I am sending the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."

And it happened, while He blessed them, that He was parted from them and was carried up into heaven.

and they were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Amen.

On the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb.

And stooping to look in, he saw the linen strips lying there; however he did not go in.

and the facecloth which had been on His head, not lying with the linen strips, but apart from [them], having been rolled up in one place.

For as yet they did not know the Scripture, that He must rise again from the dead.

But Mary stood outside facing the tomb weeping. Therefore as she was weeping, she stooped down [and] [looked] into the tomb.

Then they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they put Him."

Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, "Sir, if You carried Him away, tell me where You put Him, and I will take Him away."

Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brothers and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.'"

Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace to you."

Therefore Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you! Just as the Father has sent Me, I also send you."

and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

Thereafter He appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have gazed upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life--

when I went up into the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant, which the Lord made with you, and I was in the mountain forty days and forty nights, I ate no bread and drank no water.

And I made my petition before the Lord as also at the first forty days and forty nights: I ate no bread and drank no water, on account of all your sins which you sinned in doing evil before the Lord God, to provoke Him.

And he arose, and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food for forty days and forty nights, to Mount Horeb.

And having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.

preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.

And in the days of those kings the God of heaven shall set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and His kingdom shall not be left to another people, [but] it shall beat to pieces and grind to powder all [other] kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

Whereas you saw that a stone was cut out of a mountain without hands, and it beat to pieces the clay, the iron, the brass, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what must happen hereafter: and the dream is true, and its interpretation is sure.

and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!"

"Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and it shall be given to a nation producing the fruits of it.

Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

neither will they say, 'Look here!' or 'Look, there [it is]!' For behold, the kingdom of God is among you."

Then He said to them, "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me."

Then He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

And you are witnesses of these things.

For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,

that you would make your walk worthy of God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
