14 But Mary said, Did not the Lord bring back our brother from the dead? and he could surely bring himself to life again.

15 And as they talked, the Lord stood in their midst and said,

16 All hail! for I am risen from the dead, first fruitage of the grave!

17 And Martha ran and brought the chair in which the Lord had ever loved to sit, and Jesus sat down on the chair.

18 And for a long, long time they talked about the trial, and the scenes of Calvary and of the garden of Siloam.

19 Then Jesus said, Fear not, for I will be your boon companion all the way; and then he disappeared.

CHAPTER 176.

Jesus appears, fully materialized, to the eastern sages in the palace of Prince Ravanna in India. To the magian priests in Persia. The three wise men speak in praise of the personality of the Nazarene.

Ravanna, prince of India, gave a feast. His palace in Orissa was the place where men of thought from all the farther East were wont to meet.

2 Ravanna was the prince with whom child Jesus went to India many years ago.
