The Empty Tomb
1 Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene *came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and *saw the stone already removed from the tomb.
11 But Mary was standing outside the tomb, weeping; so as she wept, she stooped to look into the tomb; 14 When she had said this, she turned around and *saw Jesus standing there, and yet she did not know that it was Jesus. 16 Jesus *said to her, "Mary!" She turned and *said to Him in 20:16 I.e., Jewish AramaicHebrew, "Rabboni!" (which means, Teacher). 17 Jesus *said to her, "Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’ "18 Mary Magdalene *came and announced to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and that He had said these things to her.
