His Last Week: The Story of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus in the Words of the Four Gospels

Jesus Christ -- Passion -- Texts
Now on the first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, while it
was yet dark, unto the tomb, and seeth the stone taken away from the
tomb. She runneth therefore, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other
disciple whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, "They have taken away
the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him."
Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they went toward
the tomb. And they ran both together: and the other disciple outran
Peter, and came first to the tomb; and stooping and looking in, he seeth
the linen cloths lying; yet entered he not in.
Simon Peter therefore also cometh, following him, and entered into the
tomb: and he beholdeth the linen cloths lying, and the napkin, that was
upon his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but rolled up in a place by
itself. Then entered in therefore the other disciple also, who came first
to the tomb, and he saw, and believed. For as yet they knew not the
scripture, that he must rise again from the dead. So the disciples went
away again unto their own home.
THE APPEARANCE TO MARY.
But Mary was standing without at the tomb weeping: so, as she wept, she
stooped and looked into the tomb; and she beholdeth two angels in white
sitting, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus
had lain. And they say unto her, "Woman, why weepest thou?"
She saith unto them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know
not where they have laid him."
When she had thus said, she turned herself back, and beholdeth Jesus
standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
Jesus saith unto her, "Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou?"
She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, "Sir, if thou hast
borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him
away."
Jesus saith unto her, "Mary."
She turneth herself, and saith unto him in Hebrew, "Rabboni"; which is
to say, "Teacher."
Jesus saith to her, "Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended unto the
Father; but go unto my brethren, and say to them, 'I ascend unto my
Father, and your Father, and my God and your God.'"
Mary Magdalene cometh and telleth the disciples, "I have seen the Lord";
and that he had said these things unto her.
THE APPEARANCE TO THE WOMEN.
And the women which had come with him out of Galilee came unto the tomb,
bringing the spices which they had prepared. And they were saying among
themselves, "Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the tomb?"
and looking up, they see that the stone is rolled back: for it was
exceeding great. And entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting
on the right side, arrayed in a white robe; and they were amazed. And he
saith unto them, "Be not amazed: ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who hath been
crucified; he is risen; he is not here: behold, the place where they laid
him! But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He goeth before you into
Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.'"
