Resurrection of Christ, Noël Coypel, 1700,
Museum of Fine Arts, Rouen, France. [PD-US]
On the first day of the week,
Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the
morning,
while it was still dark,
and saw the stone removed from the tomb.
So she ran and went to Simon Peter
and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and
told them,
“They have taken the Lord from the tomb,
and we don’t know where they put him.”
So Peter and the other disciple went out and came
to the tomb.
They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster
than Peter
and arrived at the tomb first;
he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but
did not go in.
When Simon Peter arrived after him,
he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths
there,
and the cloth that had covered his head,
not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a
separate place.
Then the other disciple also went in,
the one who had arrived at the tomb first,
and he saw and believed.
For they did not yet understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.
John 20:1-9
