The Final Days

Jesus' Resurrection

Overview: Jesus rises from the dead, appears to his disciples who initially don't believe it is he, and charges them to spread his teachings to the world.

The Gospel According to Mark

16 (9) Now after he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. (10) She went out and told those who had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping. (11) But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.

... (14) Later he appeared to the eleven themselves as they were sitting at the table; and he upbraided them for their lack of faith and stubborness, because they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. (15) And he said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation."
