Mark 16:14 Luke 24:36-43 John 20:19-25

14 And afterward he
was manifested unto
the eleven themselves
as they sat at meat;
and he
upbraided them with
their unbelief and
hardness of heart,
because they believed
not them which had
seen him after he was
risen.
36 And as they spake
these things, he himself
stood in the midst
of them, 1and saith
unto them, Peace be
unto you. 37 But they
were terrified and
affrighted, and
supposed that they
beheld a spirit.

38 And he said unto
them, Why are ye
troubled? and
wherefore do reasonings
arise in your heart?
39 See my hands and
my feet, that it is I
myself: handle me,
and see; for a spirit
hath not flesh and
bones, as ye behold
me having. 40 2And
when he had said
this, he shewed them
his hands and his feet.
41 And while they still
disbelieved for joy,
and wondered, he said
unto them, Have ye
here anything to eat?
42 And they gave him a
piece of a broiled fish.3
43 And he took it, and
did eat before them.		 19 When therefore it
was evening, on that
day, the first day of
the week, and when
the doors were shut
where the disciples
were, for fear of the
Jews, Jesus came and
stood in the midst,
and saith unto them,
Peace be unto you.


20 And when he had
said this, he shewed
unto them his hands
and his side.


The disciples
therefore were
glad, when they saw
the Lord. 21 Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you: as
the Father hath sent me, even so send I you. 22 And when he had said
this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the 4Holy
Ghost: 23 whose soever sins ye forgive, they are forgiven unto them;
whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.a
24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called 5Didymus, was not with
them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples therefore said unto him,
We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his
hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails,
and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.
