John 19:38-42

Jesus Is Buried

38 aAfter these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly bfor fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body. 39 cNicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus
Greek him
by night, came ebringing a mixture of fmyrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds
Greek one hundred litras; a litra (or Roman pound) was equal to about 11 1/2 ounces or 327 grams
in weight.
40So they took the body of Jesus and hbound it in ilinen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews. 41Now in the place where he was crucified there was a jgarden, and kin the garden a new tomb lin which no one had yet been laid. 42So because of the Jewish mday of Preparation, nsince the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.

John 20:1-18

The Resurrection

1 oNow on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that pthe stone had been taken away from the tomb. 2So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, qthe one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and rwe do not know where they have laid him.” 3 sSo Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. 4Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5And stooping to look in, he saw tthe linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. 6Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7and uthe face cloth, which had been on Jesus
Greek his
head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself.
8Then the other disciple, wwho had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9for as yet xthey did not understand the Scripture, ythat he must rise from the dead. 10Then the disciples went back to their homes.

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb. 12And zshe saw aatwo angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet. 13They said to her, abWoman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, ac“They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.” 14Having said this, she turned around and adsaw Jesus standing, aebut she did not know that it was Jesus. 15Jesus said to her, afWoman, why are you weeping? agWhom are you seeking?” Supposing him to be ahthe gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.” 16Jesus said to her, Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic,
Or Hebrew
ajRabboni!” (which means Teacher).
17Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to akmy brothers and say to them, al‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to ammy God and your God.’” 18Mary Magdalene anwent and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”—and that he had said these things to her.
