THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN 20

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11 But Mary stood near the tomb, weeping outside. As she was weeping, she stooped down to look into the tomb 12 and saw two angels in white sitting where Jesus' body had been laid, one at the head and one at the feet. 13 They said to her, "Woman, why are yoʋ weeping?" She said to them, "They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him." 14 After saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are yoʋ weeping? Who are yoʋ looking for?" Supposing that he was the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if yoʋ have carried him away, tell me where yoʋ have laid him, and I will take him away." 16 Jesus said to her, "Mary!" She turned and said to *20:16 him ¦ him in Hebrew CThim, "Rabboni!" (which means "Teacher"). 17 Jesus said to her, "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to *20:17 my ¦ the NA SBL WHmy Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God." 18 So Mary Magdalene went and told the *20:18 disciples that she had seen the Lord and ¦ disciples, "I have seen the Lord." And she told them CTdisciples that she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her.
