⁷ on the first day of the week we assembled to break bread, when Paul, who was to depart on the morrow, gave them a sermon, which lasted till midnight.

¹ On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they went to the sepulchre with the spices they had provided, accompanied by several others. ² and having found that the stone had been remov'd from the sepulchre, they entred in, ³ but did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. ⁴ whilst they were in great perplexity about it, all of a sudden, two men appear'd before them in robes of light. ⁵ upon which they were frightned, and bowed themselves to the very ground: but the men said to them, why do you look among the dead for one that is alive? ⁶ he is not here, but is risen: remember what he told you, when he was yet in Galilee, ⁷ that the son of man must be deliver'd into the hands of sinful men; be crucified; and the third day rise again. ⁸ then they remembred his words; ⁹ and upon their return from the sepulchre, they related the whole matter to the eleven, and all the other disciples. ¹⁰ it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and others with them, who gave the apostles this relation: ¹¹ which however appear'd to them such a delirious tale, they could not give credit to any of them. ¹² yet Peter got up, and ran to the sepulchre, where stooping down he saw nothing but the linnen lying there: upon which he went away wondring with himself at such an event. ¹³ The same day two of them went to a village named Emmaus, which was distant about threescore furlongs from Jerusalem: ¹⁴ and their conversation ran upon all that had lately happened. ¹⁵ now while they were conferring and debating together, Jesus himself join'd them and walk'd along with them. ¹⁶ but their eyes were affected so as not to discern who he was. ¹⁷ and he said to them, what is the subject of your debate in the way, and why do you look so sad? ¹⁸ one of them, Cleopas by name, reply'd, are you such a stranger in Jerusalem as not to know what has so lately happen'd there? ¹⁹ what about? said he. why, about Jesus the Nazarean, said they, who was a prophet, eminently recommended, by his doctrine and his works, to the approbation of God and of all the people; ²⁰ and of his being deliver'd up by our chief priests and magistrates to be condemn'd to die, whom they actually crucified: ²¹ though we expected he would have been the Messiah, that was to deliver Israel: and besides all this, it is now three days since these things were done. ²² 'tis true, some women of our company threw us into a surprize: for going to the sepulchre early in the morning, ²³ and not finding his body there, they came to tell us, that they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. ²⁴ whereupon some of us went to the sepulchre, and found matters just as the women had related; but him they did not see. ²⁵ then Jesus said to them, how stupidly incredulous are you not to believe things that have been all predicted by the prophets! ²⁶ was not the Messiah to have suffer'd thus, and after that enter into his glory? ²⁷ then beginning at Moses he explain'd all the passages there, and in all the prophets, which related to himself. ²⁸ and they drew nigh the village where they were going: and he seemed as if he would have pass'd on further. ²⁹ but they press'd him, saying, stay with us, for it is late and begins to be dark. so he went in to tarry with them. ³⁰ and as he was at table with them, he took bread, and gave thanks, then brake it and gave it to them; ³¹ when looking upon him more intently, they perceiv'd that it was Jesus. but he vanish'd out of sight. ³² Upon this, they said to one another, to what ardor did not our affections rise, while he talk'd with us by the way, and while he expounded to us the scriptures? ³³ and immediately they set out, and return'd to Jerusalem, where they found the eleven, and the rest of their company, all assembled, who said, ³⁴ the Lord is actually risen, and hath appeared to Simon. ³⁵ Thereupon the two disciples related what had hapned on the road, and how they first discover'd who Jesus was at his breaking of bread. ³⁶ While they were thus talking, Jesus himself appear'd in the midst of them, and said to them, peace be with you. ³⁷ but they were in a consternation and fright, imagining, that they saw a spirit. ³⁸ upon which he said to them, why are you in this confusion? what is it, that your minds are so perplex'd? ³⁹ behold my hands, and my feet. for I am bodily present, touch me and consider me; for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see me have: ⁴⁰ all the while holding out his hands and his feet, as he was speaking. ⁴¹ but as they were diffident of so joyful an event, and still in amaze, he said to them, have you any thing here to eat? ⁴² and they gave him a piece of broil'd fish, and of a honey-comb; ⁴³ which he took, and did eat in their presence. ⁴⁴ then he said, this is what I told you, while I was yet with you, that what has been written concerning me in the law of Moses, in the prophets, and in the psalms, must be all accomplished. ⁴⁵ then he open'd their minds to make them understand the scriptures, and said to them, ⁴⁶ thus it is written, and thus it behov'd Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: ⁴⁷ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preach'd in his name, among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. ⁴⁸ you are witnesses of these things. ⁴⁹ and I am going to send you what my father has promis'd you. but continue in the city of Jerusalem, until you shall be endued with power from on high. ⁵⁰ At length he led them out as far as Bethany; and stretching out his hands, he gave them his benediction. ⁵¹ and while he was blessing them, he was taken from them, and carried up into heaven. ⁵² and they worship'd him, and with great joy return'd to Jerusalem, ⁵³ where they daily praised and blessed God in the temple.

¹ The first day of the week early in morning Mary Magdalene, when it was yet dusky, came to the sepulchre, and found the stone was taken away from the sepulchre. ² upon this she went in great haste to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, they have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him. ³ Peter immediately departed, and that other disciple, to go to the sepulchre. ⁴ they both set out together: but the other disciple out-ran Peter, and came first to the cave, ⁵ where stooping down he saw the linen clothes lying; but did not go in. ⁶ Simon Peter who followed him, being come, went into the cave, and saw the linen clothes lying there; ⁷ as for the napkin that had been put about his head, it was not in the same place as the linen clothes, but lay folded up by it self. ⁸ then the other disciple, who arriv'd first, went into the cave likewise, and he saw, and believed what Mary had said. ⁹ for as yet they did not understand from the scripture, that he was to rise again from the dead. ¹⁰ After this the disciples return'd to their own home. ¹¹ but Mary stood at the entrance of the cave weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down to look into the sepulchre, ¹² and saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, the one at the head, the other at the feet. ¹³ and they said to her, woman, why do you weep? "because, said she, they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him." ¹⁴ having thus said, she turned about, and saw Jesus standing, but knew not that it was Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus said to her, woman, why do you weep? who do you look for? she supposing him to be the gardener, said to him, sir, if it be you that have convey'd him away; tell me where you have laid him, and I will take care to have him remov'd. ¹⁶ Jesus said to her, Mary! she bowing her self, cry'd rabboni! ¹⁷ that is to say, master! Jesus said to her, touch me not: for I am not yet ascended to my father: but go to my brethren, and say to them, "I ascend unto my father and your father, even my God and your God." ¹⁸ so Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples, that she had seen the Lord, and that he had said these things to her. ¹⁹ The same day at evening, being the first day of the week, the doors of the house where the disciples were, being shut, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, peace be with you. ²⁰ and when he had so said, he show'd them his hands and his side. the disciples were therefore extremely glad when they saw it was the Lord. ²¹ then said Jesus to them again, "peace be with you: as my father hath sent me, even so send I you." ²² and when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "receive ye the holy spirit. ²³ whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye leave unpardoned, they are lest unpardoned." ²⁴ But Thomas, that is, Didymus, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. ²⁵ the other disciples therefore said to him, we have seen the Lord. but he said to them, except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe. ²⁶ Eight days after, when his disciples were again in private, and Thomas with them: Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, peace be with you. ²⁷ then said he to Thomas, reach hither thy finger, and examine my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. ²⁸ Thomas answered, and said to him, my Lord and my God! ²⁹ Jesus said to him, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they who have not seen, and yet have believed. ³⁰ Jesus perform'd many other miracles in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book. ³¹ but these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Messias, the son of God, and that believing ye might have life through his name.

² every sabbath-day let every one of you set apart something of what he has happily gain'd, for the common treasury, that there may be no collection when I come.
