John 20:1-8 ▼

1 On the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from it.

2 So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter and the other disciple--the one who was dear to Jesus--and to tell them, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him."

3 Peter and the other disciple started at once to go to the tomb, both of them running,

4 but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and reached it before he did.

5 Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there on the ground, but he did not go in.

6 Simon Peter, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb. There on the ground he saw the cloths;

7 and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus, not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.

8 Then the other disciple, who had been the first to come to the tomb, also went in and saw and was convinced.
