Jesus Appears to His Disciples
36Now while they were telling these things, aHe Himself stood in their midst and *said to them, “Peace to you.” 37But being startled and frightened, they were thinking that they were seeing aa spirit. 38And He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your 1hearts? 39“aSee My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; btouch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet. 41And while they still awere not believing because of their joy and were still marveling, He said to them, “bHave you anything here to eat?” 42They gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, 43and He took it and aate it before them.
44Now He said to them, “aThese are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the bLaw of Moses and the Prophets and cthe Psalms must be fulfilled.” 45Then He aopened their 1minds to understand the Scriptures, 46and He said to them, “aThus it is written, that the 1Christ would suffer and brise again from the dead the third day, 47and that arepentance 1for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed 2in His name to ball the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48“You are awitnesses of these things. 49“And behold, aI am sending the promise of My Father upon you, but byou are to stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.”
